    First off, I don’t see why each user has to create their own smugmug API key. But fine, I can deal with that.

    The worse thing is the complicated interface that hinders me from efficiently posting my photos this way. It’s far easier to download your photos from Smugmug and reupload them using the normal WP method.

    First off, I don’t see why each user has to create their own smugmug API key.

    I believe I had explained to you why you need to provide your API key. How do you expect authentication to work if I bundle my key with your copy of the plugin? What if SmugMug decides some day to charge me per API call (or implements rate-limiting)? And what if some day I close my account with SmugMug?

    It’s far easier to download your photos from Smugmug and reupload them using the normal WP method.

    I hadn’t realized that you could download all photos from all albums in SmugMug, upload them to WP, and add captions and lightbox effects, more easily than using a shortcode insertion screen. Thanks – I will investigate this method.
