Allow others to upload to my smugmug account?

Is it possible to allow others to upload to my smugmug account without allowing them full access to my private galleries? We had a party this weekend and I would love to allow those that took pictures to upload to my account. So far the only way I see to do this is to give them my password. They could use the email to smugmug upload feature, but most email programs have max file attachment restrictions. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thank you!

    Stacey,
    The email to Smugmug option looks like your best bet. Setting a Guest password, would give them viewing and editing rights (except deleting) to your photos in your private galleries.

    FWIW, most email systems will allow 1mb worth of attachments. Many allow up to 10mbs worth.

    Greetings,

    I was curious about this possibility as well.

    Do I understand the email to smug mug option right? They will have to use your email login or create a smug mug account to upload? I guess I understand the reasoning behind it, but wonder if there is a way around it.

    People who wish to use email to Smugmug, to upload to your site, use yournickname@email.smugmug.com and a unique "email password" you create. The files get uploaded to a gallery named "email". You can store/display them there. Or you can move the uploaded photos to other galleries (such as family photo albums, etc...).
