I have the power user level account. What happens when someone clicks on the buy photo link and they actually order a photo that appears in one of my galleries? I assume the price is set and not configurable? (uness you upgrade to pro account?) What happens to the money they pay for the photo when buying from someone with a power user account?...does 100% of that money go to SmugMug?

I might have some inclination to upgrade to pro level here before long. Not only because of the pricing of prints for sale if I do sell anything, but also I'd like to finally stop people from snagging copies of my photos by right-clicking.

Correct.

Yes.

Cool...thanks Andy. I do want to upgrade. Hopefully it will in the next few months.

There's no discount on upgrading from power user to pro is there? Just curious. Would it be a straight up $149.95 to go to Pro?

Your money paid to power account is applied to the pro subscription. So, if on Day 1 you paid $60 then you'd owe 90. We prorate from there, so if you have 6 months left on your subscription, you'd pay 45.

Understood. That's more than fair.
