Your best bet is to go into your Domain Management in GoDaddy and have your .net address forwarded to the .com address. +1 to that.. My Gear | My Alamy

ChrisRabior Senior Member 826 posts Joined Mar 2007 Location: Metro Detroit More info | Nov 02, 2009 15:05 | #10 If you're like me, .htaccess doesn't do you any good with godaddy, since you're not really using them for hosting, just for their domain name. SmugMug does all of my hosting, and unfortunately you can't upload an htaccess file to them, so you have to go through all the steps of setting up proper forwarding and redirects through your domain names.

Where one domain is parked on top of another and the names are used interchangeably. I would imagine smug mug could set this up for you without too many problems, it's a very common feature of hosting.

Those in Google don't work yet... while those on my old email letters do... Cut and Pasting the old URL still doesn't forward yet, either.
I don't hate macs or OSX, I hate people and statements that portray them as better than anything else. Macs are A solution, not THE solution. Get a good desktop i7 with Windows 7 and come tell me that sucks for photo or video editing.

Most likely it's better to just let everything cool down, and you'll probably be able to forget about doing anything else. DDCSD wrote in post #8950770 Looks like it was done incorrectly. It is forwarding and masking to www.smugmug.com and not your specific .com smugmug site.Thanks for the feedback. John Stoy
