Thanks , Henk - glad you enjoyed a browse- hope you found it easy to
navigate.
A couple of points:
The website is structured as an image bank for me and for stock photo or
fine art sales, People can even buy downloads in various sizes..
The main galleries in the "on the road or on foot" section ,as you
surely noticed, is divided into a bunch of galleries by date or subject
matter.
The black background and the arrangement of thumbnails is all my design
choice... it is not everyone's - there are a lot of styles, fonts and
colors to pick from.
The banner is totally my design.Some galleries use the smugmug style for
the index page, and some are what they call collage landscape - which is
the only other one I use.
There should not be ANY comments from anyone else in any of the
galleries... I want comments and questions only in private email. There
may be a couple of exceptionswhere I've asked for ID's or in the family
galleries... not on photos I"m selling.
Yes, flickr is more of a social media and I ain't interested - PDML and
facebook is more than enough for that. the white background is one of
many things I dislike about viewing photos on fiickr..
Best,
ann

Ann, that's an impressive gallery! Glad you shared it.
It will take more time to look at all of the pics, but that squirrel
looking at the hawk is extremely fascinating.
You will have plenty to choose from for the May pug!
The smugmug layout is pretty good and I like the black background more
than the white one on Flickr.
I only seem to miss interactions/reactions/favorites or whatever, only
individual comments, so it looks Flickr is more of a social media.
But there is not much to worry about the take over - I'll see what
happens.

I've been off list for a few days and deleted all the mail for the
last month or so.. glad to come back to see this
I'm a long time smugmugger and I love it... easy to upload, choices
of landing page format and good levels of privacy settings. live chat
for help..
I cant' even count how many images I've got there - I'vemade a bit of
money through them, too. I'm at the so called portfolio level. I
have pretty much total control over the way my landing page looks -
easy search box at top of the landing page, and I can control the
appearance of eachy gallery separately if I want to.
take a look at my landing page, Henk, but please, not on a phone- on
a desktop :-)

Hopefully (as said in the FAQ), the Flickr service is not going to
change in the foreseeable future.
Having stored now close to 6000 of my selected pics on Flickr in
full resolution for $ 25/year, I'm happy with Flickr as it is now.
The choice of private/friends/family/public works fine. Also there
are so many groups of common interest in subjects.
I also maintain on Flickr a community (public) image bank as the
arrangement of albums or sets and frequently extensive descriptions
of the images are so much more conveniently done than on a hosted
website.
I've no experience at all how current smugmug handles all this.
