Hello -

I just signed up with smugmug a bit ago and overall I'm very happy.

The one concern that I do have is with the shopping cart...to me, it isn't as obvious as with other sites that the photos are for sale and can be easily purchased. Any ideas on how to highlight this?

Also, I'd like to use the thumbnail view but this doesn't even show the shopping cart until a photo is selected - any way to get the cart at the bottom all the time so it is right in people's faces?

If anyone has any good sample galleries of how they have addressed this please share - thanks in advance!!!

look at some of the pro sites on smugmug ( http://www.dgrin.com/showthread.php?t=959) and see what other pros have done... there's lots you can do to customize your site :deal

Here is my solution (http://photography.brilliantphoton.com/gallery/460787/1/18620981/Large). It is somewhat of a pain because I have to manually paste the photo caption into each photograph, but I think it works pretty well.
