:dunno I am still in the process of customizing my new look in SmugMug. I uploaded graduation photos into a gallery for the parents to view. I received a comment back from them stating the images were not there. I looked on my end and the images are where I put them but from their end Smugmug had placed the images in another folder called Smug Preview. Is this what will happen to all of my uploaded images until I launch my new site?:scratch Also, how was I to know this was going to happen? I didn't see it anywhere.

    On your legacy site where they are looking you would had to add the new gallery to a category and
    probably a sub-cat. If you add the gallery to NewSmug like you did Smugmug does not know what
    category it belongs to so by default it puts it in the "Smug Preview" category. All galleries have to
    be in a category on legacy, folder on NewSmug.

    Before I unveil I do all my content changes/additions in legacy so I can keep control of where
    everything is. Both new and old use folders (cat & sub-cat on legacy) so I'd suggest on NewSmug
    browse to the folder where you want the new gallery and add it there.

    Thank you Allen...I don't know that I would have found this solution without your help. Makes perfect sense.
