How do you post your SmugMug Feeds in your blog? How do you make it easy for viewers to subscribe? Please post your methods here, so others can learn.
Thanks!

I operate a series of blog's for the high school my kids go to. I use the blogs to share information, photos and videos. For my photos I either post a Smugmug link to the gallery on the blog or if it's just a single photo I just insert the image using a Smugmug link to that image.
That what you are looking for Andy?

My blog is WordPress. It is not running on WordPress host (wordpress.com) but on my own host instead (SpeakEasy). This is how i use Smugmug's feeds on my WordPress blog (note: this is valid for WordPress 1.5x. It may be different for WordPress 2.x)
I installed WordPress 1.5.2 on my own host.
I used the WordPress' default theme (look and feel).
Then i modified some of the PHP and the CSS files a little to make it look like my smugmug-site (sand in the background, colors, etc.) and i made a copy of my smugmug-header (logo/photocrawl) and put it into the WordPress header.
For importing pics from Smugmug (changes in galleries, etc.) i use the /wp-admin/import-rss.php on my WordPress installation. You need to modify this php-file by providing it with the RSS-url (just copy your RSS feed URL as provided by Smugmug on your Smugmug homepage)
Optional: I added a secret code so that no-one else can go to this URL (/wp-admin/import-rss.php) and execute the import-rss.php scripts.
After i make updates to my smugmug galleries or add new ones, i just execute http://blog.antonspaans.com/wp-admin/import-rss.php (i left the secret code out of this URL...)That's it :D
