It makes total sense to me to use pictures to promote sites that's got great movies, as an up-sell.
You show 'em some hot pics and if they want the hotter motion action, they've gotta pay.
But there are MANY free sites and galleries out there with movies as promotion material so I'm just wondering if that is actually a big advantage to use movies instead of pics from the start... even if they're crummy.
As Greenie said, if the sponsor site is a movie site, then movies really is the only sensible option
But for other, non movie specific sites, if there isn't a big difference in conversions between using pics or movies, as you say tigermom, then it's gotta be way more profitable to only use pics... as the bandwidth usage must be far lower.
Thanks for all your input. Now I know what to try first
