I am setting up a photoblog, but the problem is that my photo collection is in GIGS. So I am using smugmug to host my photos. Is there an addon or something like that by which instead of uploading the image to my pixelpost site I just give 2 links, one for thumbnail and another for full Image? Or just the full image link and pixelpost can create and store thumbnails?

on average the photos i upload (700px wide) to my photoblog are around about 70k. i'm no mathmetician but if you've got gigs worth then surely you have... about 70million images? surely not ;) ... you shouldn't be uploading full size images to a photoblog :P

IOW - what you want is not possible with Pixelpost

well, it could be possible with an admin addon.

Well GIGS is a little too much, but each photo is about 2MB(high rez). I could probably upload the resized pics on my photoblog page I guess

sure - i'm sure people who scan their negs have 70meg images... but it's definitely recommended to resize in photoshop... much better quality and then upload after that.
RAW picture from 39 Mpx PhaseOne digital back (http://phaseone.com/Content/p1digitalbacks/P%2045.aspx) is about 135 MB :P
Posting pictures in so high res and quality is killing internet.

Does such an addon exist which could let me specify the thumbnail and full image on a different server?
