The unlimited packed is only 12.95/month, seems pretty reasonable when others are charging $1200 for smugmug custimization. I played around with it and it seems pretty neat, anyone else have their flash website with this ??

For the price it is not bad, but (IMO) not professional. What about show-it-sites?

And there is people who do smugmug customization for alot cheaper then $1200, and I am one of them. If you are interested give me an email I will send you a reasonable qoute. www.smugdesigns.com (external link)

I agree, wix was pretty lame.

Basically, I figured out Zenfolio made me happiest. And $40 a year is cheaper than $13 a month.

Agreed. Your best options are Zenfolio, Smugmug or code a website yourself (which is my option)

I already have smugmug and I'm completely happy with the services just not completely happy with the look.

I would try zenfolio- I wasn't ever happy with my smugmug trial so I switched and it feels oodles better.
