Link to hiden-owner galleries

Nimai

So, I know this is my fault, but I was in a hurry to send a link out to someone. I went to my galleries page and coppied the link from the gallery thumbnail, pasted in an email and hastily hit Cmd-Enter to send the email.
This was followed by a resounding "DOH!", when I realized that when I'm logged in and looking at my galleries, the link from the gallery thumbnails is a link to my site, i.e. nimai.smugmug.com. I just gave my personal information away to someone that I wanted to remain anonymous to.
I would like to request that for hiden-owner galleries, the links on the gallery page be directly to www.smugmug.com URLs, not redirects.
Does that make sense?

You need to select hide owner for it to go to www.smugmug.com

Yes, this was for a gallery that had Hide Owner selected. Works great.
UNLESS you use the URL on the Galleries page, when you're logged in.
Then you get a personalized URL.

Its just one of those things that you have to get in a habit to always change the link when you copy and paste. I send links alot and always have to change it. I have sent a few, and then had the DOH!! moment as well. But they are few and far between.

But the good thing for you is once they land on the page and then click on a photo and back to the main gallery, your name part of the link should be gone and only smugmug, so unless they pay attention and then try to retype your direct site in later, they may not catch on. It will depend on how internet savy they are.
