I can't tell yet whether I can pick an image from there. It seems to revert to the usual problems with smugmug if I try, but that may be because you haven't transfered it all across yet. But I say FWIW because I am suspicious of your explanation. I have the same problem with anyone on the LUG or elsewhere using smugmug so it doesn't seem to be restricted to you. It may be that: (a) The explanation given is only partially correct (or wrong!) (b) Smugmug are trying to do something clever with their site which hasn't yet appeared in the explanations (c) I have a problem with my system but then I would expect more problems trhan I do have At present your pages don't work for me beyond the front page on either IE 8 or FFX 3.5.7 (both over XP). HOWEVER it **does** work fine on Safari on my iPhone!!!!!!!!!!!! (ie Safari over OS 3.1.2) or on FFX 3.5.7 over Ubuntu 9.10 I don't know what this says except that my feeling that it might be some MS-specific coding seems to have gone out the window. Does anyone else have problems accessing it specifically over XP??
