    I don't know about pros but I love SmugBrowser for Firefox. I haven't used anything else in a long time.

    Send To Smugmug is a winner for me
    I'm very happy with Send To Smugmug ... Not a single problem with very large uploads... clap.gif

    I love Send To Smugmug, too -- when it works. I keep getting an error when I try to send 10+ files. I checked their boards but it seems they're not operating anymore. Maybe I can find a way to get in touch with Omar. It's a great little program.

    Weird.. I use Send To Smugmug as well and never had a problem sending 100's or even 1000's at a time.

    I wonder if you uninstalled and reinstalled it?

    Good luck!

    I just use the built-in java uploader. It works fine for me and gets the job done without hassle.

    when selecting images in bulk, i too will get an error when uploading using send to smugmug. my workaround for this is to select (right click) an entire directory and send to smugmug. this technique works better for me as i use pretty descriptive folder names and send to smugmug automatically uses the folder name for the album name. :ivar

    ahh.. that might explain why I've never gotten an error. I've always selected the folder.

    Hmm. "Send to SmugMug" doesn't support JPE-files.

    I recommend and use StarExplorer

    I recommend StarExplorer (http://www.starexplorer.com/). It costs a small amount of money, but it's the best thing I could find for doing large uploads. It even has a persistent queue for everything that you want uploaded and, even if the upload is interupted in the middle, you can resume it sometime later and make sure everything you wanted to upload gets there.

    The author hangs out in the Star Explorer thread here at dgrin.
