Okay here is a quick explanation of what I'm wanting to do and why. I have two SmugMug accounts one is a poweruser account which I use to display my work and have pricing info etc. The other account I use for selling all my sports action, pageant photos ect. What I would like to do is create a gallery with a single photo so it has a thumbnail when people see it and then once the click on it takes them to another gallery or sub gallery on my pro account that has their portrait session, wedding ect. Can this be done? Thanks in advance for the help.

Sure, make a new gallery, leave it empty.
Embed your photo in the gallery description:
<html>
<a href="http://www.yourprosite.com"><img src="http://nickname.smugmug.com/photos/XXXXXX-L.jpg></a>
</html>

You could use an html-only gallery to show a photo from either account and to link to a page within that account.
I used an html-only gallery for my "gallery" page (as opposed to the standard SmugMug galleries page) so that I could show larger thumbs. My Kaleidoscope page is also an html-only page.
Here's an example of the html that I used to display a photo and to make it clickable to the gallery where the photo resides:
<a href="/Wandering%20near%20home" title="Wandering near home">
<img src="/photos/random.mg?AlbumID=3567671&Size=175x175"></a>
If you're linking between your sites you would neet to put the full url for the img src statement, and you would need to supply the full url for the gallery in the <a href=. I'm using the shortcut versions since I'm not linking outside of my galleries in this example.
Also - you may want some code for your CSS for the html-only galleries. See # 60 in the Advanced Customization FAQ (http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=52811).
