Yes it is. I have found one minor glitch. There is a Recently Added category in the My Photographs menu on the home page. When in the edit page page you are supposed to be able to pick any gallery, select an image and then clock on Edit in the Access Control and set it up so that image will not be displayed when you open the Recently Added category. This way you can limit it to a few images per category. Not working. I did the help the support thing on the help line but have not heard back yet. Every other time I used the support they responded quickly. I'm wondering if I'm doing something wrong. Not a big deal as I'm not sure I like that category yet.
I think I know what you are asking. I do believe that I saw a post on the Zen forums about it a while back but I don't have time to search., If I am understanding what you are looking to accomplish, I would just delete the link for "recent" and create a new category or gallery called "whatever recent bla bla" and then just add the photos that you wish to appear in that spot. This way, only the images you choose will appear there and you have total control.
On another note:
Yes Smugmug has a lot of user control with Style Sheets and HTML giving it an advantage if and only if you have those skills. If one doesn't have those skills, then they are at no more of an advantage than the Zenfolio templates (give or take). I would wonder why someone with those skills would not want to create their own main page anyway. Of course, this is not a knock on Smugmug as it is a great avenue for photo sales as is Zenfolio.
Remember, I have used both - I just liked the Zenfolio galleries and partnership with Mpix better....either way, I have my own separate main page.
