I've used a Google Earth/Picasa partnership to geotag a multitude of photos in bulk and it works very well.
My problem is that I am trying to create a SmugMug site that hosts both professional and personal galleries (the second to be protected & viewed by family and friends only). The big issue lies in the fact that geotagging only works with public galleries (this, BTW, doesn't make sense to me...it would seem to me that most folks in this situation would want to have geotag mapping available in their private galleries because there, much moreso than in pro galleries, is where you would want the geotagging feature available).
Anyhow, can anyone lend any insight into how I might be able to accomplish this, given my goal of having both pro and personal photos on the same site? If there is no work-around for the geotagging/protected gallery issue, is there a way to have all of my galleries public, but only have my pro galleries show up on the site and direct family/friends to hidden galleries set up only for them? That way, geotagging would still work for all of my photos.
One final question in this regard...there have been some posts about limitations on the # of photos that can be geotagged on a site. Can someone clarify if (1) there are any limitations and (2) what they are specifically?
Thanks very much in advance for any assistance...
