glad other's are up as early as i am...thanks for the link.

did i miss something recently? when did you guys start doing those my canvas books..and i've looked and looked at those, and can't find where the page limits are? certainly it isn't one price fits all pages right? what i mean is...a 40 page book certainly couldnt' be priced the same as a 150 page book?

thanks for any answers - or pointing me in the right direction.

Nope, price depends on how many pages.

Actually I am too tired, I have not slept so I will have to look at it in the "morning" :)

Here is a copy&paste of the release notes listed on the smugblog...

We had a big release tonight that was a long time in coming. We’re happy to announce brand-new buttons, great new products, shine-ups, and bug fixes. SmugMug is now easier to use, or at least a lot more fun.
Buttons

Brand-new Tools button.
On gallery pages it has gallery tools, site links, and photo tools (as appropriate, depending on your viewing style.)
On pages like /date /keyword and /popular , it has photo tools as appropriate (yay!), and site links.
On homepage, category, and subcategory pages for Professional subscribers, it has site links. (Power and Standard subscribers will still see just a Control Panel button.)
New Buy button goodness:
We added Collage Posters and Give the Gift of SmugMug to the gallery Buy button, as well as new items under Photo Books and Mounting & Framing.
We also added Create a Card to /popular , /date, and /keyword pages.
Buy buttons now live on your homepage, category and subcategory pages so you can easily order a backup disc for the level you’d like
We updated the other buttons to match.
New Products

Our Mounted Canvas prints are now wrapping on thicker, better stretcher bars.
We added a new tab to our catalog page, chock full of goodies from our partners.
The Goodies: Photo Books and Collage Posters through MyCanvas, and framed prints through Imagekind. Don’t miss the limited-time deals they’re offering to SmugMuggers! These same options are also loaded in the “Buy” button on your gallery pages when you’re logged in.
Shine-ups

New PhotoRank page.
New, more smug messages when you add or remove watermarks using the photo tool.
New, more smug message when you’re logged in as an Assistant and try to view tabs in the Control Panel that are off-limits to Assistants.
We supercharged the “make a copy” photo tool. No more twiddling your thumbs.
We made watermark images always available for watermarking, even when hidden. Previously we’d use SmugMug’s default watermark if you had (likely inadvertently) hidden your custom watermark image.
We sped up video processing significantly.
Added “Replace Video Preview Image” tool so you can now tell us what your videos should look like before your fans click Play. Upload a jpeg that matches the resolution of your video (e.g. 1280×720).
The “Buy: Photos in this Gallery” page now preserves the order of your images when you add them to your cart in bulk.
We now put newest site messages at the top of the list, rather than the bottom.
We renamed the “Guest Password” feature to be “Assistant Password”. It’s more clear as to the purpose and powers of an Assistant, we hope!
We now prevent Professional subscribers from creating an Assistant password that is identical to their account password.
Fixed a formatting issue in FF2 that caused our bullets to be displayed as ugly boxes.
Changed Newfoundland (NF) to Newfoundland and Labrador (NL) in our country list. Apologies to all our Canuck friends to the north for the lag on that one!
Bug Fixes

We no longer accept nicknames that begin with a dash. (They break, so we’d prefer to head them off at the pass.)
Fixed a bug where filenames with multiple periods could cause problems when adding them to your SmugVault.
Fixed a bug with the wrapping preview for mounted canvas prints in the shopping cart.
Fixed a bug where we’d lose site-wide customization and theme if a visitor entered an incorrect gallery viewing password. We now keep your look and feel and prompt the visitor to try again.
Fixed a bug with commas in your address book for share emails. You can now add “Kent, Clark” without a hitch.
Fixed a long-standing, very obscure, but surprisingly common bug that prevented a Quick Setting on the Customize Gallery page from saving properly if you had an apostrophe in your password, password hint, or backprinting.

If you go to the smugmug.mycanvas.com page and hit Learn More and then pricing, there it explains all details of pricing.

There it explains.

You can find them on the prints & gifts catalog page as well as when you hit "buy" and "create a book" it is listed on the MyCanvas landing page under "Sweet Deal".

Unfortunately this first round you have to make the cards for your customer and point them to your site.

We are working on it so your customer can make their own card.

I know, I know it kind of sucks but we are working on it.
