I've been posting & running message boards for 9 years now & it's very rare to see unsolicited advice or tutorials that are not spam.
You've set yourself some goals & I hope you attain them, but let's face it - this board is full of 100's of webmasters that do this exact same process on a daily/weekly/monthly basis - build, submit, build, submit, build, submit - you just decided to keep a diary.
Honestly - who in the gallery business isn't using a submitter? Buying partner accounts? And, based on the webamsters we have here, who's not taking 2 of those gallery templates & using them to make a free site?
Everyone & their brother has a hub & most people have a blog - you're not reinventing the wheel, you're just keeping track of how it goes round & round.
I'm sorry if I sound "hostile" about this - and maybe I am jaded because I've been burnt on similar "projects" in the past - and maybe I'm pissed that of all the sponsors, one of the ones you've mentioned in this thread is banned by most legit webmasters.
Like I said, good luck & post when it's complete.
