How to Use SHS’ SmugMug Photo Website
• Overview
There are two ways to access the site depending on your goals.
Goal 1:
View, Download Digital Images and Purchase Photos
Go to URL: www.shsphotos.smugmug.com; password is Gators.
Goal 2:
Upload and Share Photos/video with the Community
You will need to go to www.smugmug.com and login as an “assistant” to create
galleries/albums to upload photos/videos. (Directions to follow.)
• Note: If you upload photos to the site, your computer may “cookie” (i.e., save) the login
information; therefore if you close out of your browser and then go to the SHS photo
site at a later time, it will automatically log you in as an “assistant.” Logging in as an
“assistant” means there are just a lot of extra tools and settings for you to ignore.
• After uploading images to SmugMug, you may wish to delete your cookies on your web
browser to avoid being “cookied,” or you can disable your cookie function on your web
browser.
