You can easily place a bio photo near the top of your SmugMug homepage and surround it with text that explains how amazing you are. Your bio photo will also show up next to any comments you make.
 

First, log in and go to your SmugMug homepage (click My Homepage in the menu bar you see near the top of the page once logged in).

If you don't see the space for your bio photo and text on your homepage, click the Homepage Layout button at the top of the page and check the "Your Bio" option.
 

Adding a bio photo

There's two ways to do it. You can always click the "change bio photo" link that appears in the top of your Bio box.

Or you can:

  1. Upload the photo to any gallery on your SmugMug site.
  2. Navigate to that photo in one of your galleries.
  3. Pick This Is Me! from the Tools Menu above the photo.
     

FYI: A bio photo from a password-protected gallery with external links turned off won't show up for visitors. You can change the settings in your gallery settings.
 

Adding text

You'll see an edit link beside your bio when you're logged in. That will open a text box (place to type your bio) right beside your bio photo.
 

Your bio


After typing, click Save. Admire your remarkable bio.

Deleting your bio photo

You can do this simply by clicking the "remove bio photo" link in the top of your Bio box.

Or, you can do this from your Account Settings. Go to the Me tab and click the Profile section.
