    While you can upload RAW files for backup using SmugVault, photos uploaded for display in your galleries must be .jpg.

    See http://www.smugmug.com/help/print-quality for help with the file sizes.

    I'm not sure what you're asking with the file too large to open in photoshop since that doesn't sound like it's related to smugmug.

    File Prep Tips:

    :)

    Essentially: Save as JPG, level 10, in photoshop and you'll be fine thumb.gif

    Use sRGB.
