Re: Site Speed???
Slow for me as well I just signed up to smugmug on Friday and I'm noticing it is very slow as well. I have been trying to configure my site all weekend and it has been very frustrating with poor page loads and timeouts. My site location is http://macmoov.smugmug.com/ Here is my speed test. And my traceroute Microsoft… -

Re: Smugmug Shipping over 700% markup!
I've done that comparison many times Sam, every time I am directly involved in handling an order for a client. I would actually prefer to order from my own account here and I would prefer to have my customers order from my site. I pay for my pro level account because I'd like to take advantages of the ease of use (my… -
No Images - Opinion
Interesting point of view Here's a list of tips, advice, rules and just things to know about photography from Eric Kim, a street photographer who also holds photography workshop classes. Here's the full list: 1. Just because someone has an expensive camera doesn't mean that they're a good photographer. 2. Always shoot in… -
More LAB explorations
As a color retoucher, I, unlike most of you on this site, have no control over the images that i have to work on, and, truth is, despite the usual skin-tone, color cast and contrast issues, the images here are uniformly superior to anything I see in the professional ad world. Most look like they've come from the discount… -
The Road From Zion
Vacation day in Denver. The wife awoke at 3:00am in Florida. She was snowed out of Denver for 2 days forcing us to cancel one day of the trip to Utah. Her airplane landed at 9:00am and were on the road in no time, the wife packed in the back seat asleep. We took to the road in east Denver in overcast skies. No time to stop… -
Re: Time To Move Up
Hey Nee, I'm afraid it is carved in stone that you will spend many times over the cost of the camera body in glass and other goodies. I'll talk about my Nikon experience as thats what I know about. I started out with the D100 for $1600. Now you need an extra battery that cost $45.00. I added the battery grip (more battery… -
Re: speed

The images are served out via photos.smugmug.com (akamaized) while the other content… -
Re: The Elements -- behind the scenes
"Dubya"-My behind! I nearly did not enter an image for this round. During the shoot window we moved my daughter(link) off to college, I provided event coverage for an extravagant birthday party(link), and was involved in training 36 new employees at my “real job”. Aside from the time issue, I was deflated by all the… -
Re: A Trip Too Small: Fiji, New Zealand, and Some More
Ah Wellington... we had heard a lot of good things about Wellington during our travels, but nothing really prepared us for what we found. And this time that wasn't a good thing. We hit town and spent the day walking around seeing the sights, which mostly consisted of a sort of a dingy grey unhappiness pervading a rather…
