We’re really excited about this release and we thank ALL of our pros who’ve stuck with us. We hope this is just the beginning of even more great pro features yet to come!

This is the best news I have heard since finding out about SmugMug. I think that digital downloads and custom watermarks were the two features that almost every pro wanted, as well as needed in todays market place.
A BIG thank you for working so hard to deliver a wonderful product.

Im also a pro user and i especially like digital downloads. Watermarking is very cool too. The thing that makes smugmug the best site there is in this kind of business is that you guys constantly keep upgrading, researching and developing. Im glad to pay next years bucks.

I recently flipped my stock imaging site over to SmugMug. Feature rich and the unlimited storage and bandwidth for the Pro package cannot be beat! Bravo!

I am thrilled with these new features, but am curious if there are plans for an uploader that works with Aperture or Lightroom? These apps are designed to be A to Z workflow apps, but so far only if you are creating your own web pages and hosting them. Currently one would have to export their images from Aperture or Lightroom in order to be able to upload them to smugmug… but this sort of defeats the purpose of the two programs where image edits are stored as a series of instruction to be applied to the original, instead of folders of separate files (”originals”, “edited”, “web”, etc).
Thanks!

Hi Erin, that’s a great idea, and we hope to be able to offer such direct plugins from popular post-processing and workflow systems. Stay tuned!
