Hello Everyone,
I am a new Pro user and I am in the process of migrating my website over to SmugMug. When I was playing around with SmugMug I decided to upload full size JPEG files. In the individual gallery's I disallowed people from seeing large prints and the original.
Do I need to use the Proof Delay if I have full size JPEGs in my gallery?
Thank you for your assistance!
Sincerely,
NavyMoose

I can jump in on this one:
The reason for using delayed proofing is to give you a chance to see what your customer has ordered, how they've cropped it, and what color options they've chosen. It also gives you the ability to replace the photo they purchase with another, further retouched, version.
Smugmug is going to print from the large jpeg you uploaded, no matter what options you chose for viewing (no larges, no originals)...so this has no bearing on your selection of proof delay or no proof delay.
Unless your photos (and customers) are perfect, you may want to have a delay - even if it's just a day - to make sure the cropping and options are right before its commited to print.
