Is it just me, or do most sponsor feeds totally suck?

It does do what it purports to do, and the feeds seem well formed and work fine with wpautoblog.

But, like you mention, I wanted more tools and control in the critical importng operations, and I want the same tools in the gallery database editing area.

I don't like that it only allows you to enter a gallery url once, and won't even let you overwrite an older url, you have to delete the first url before you can add it again (and try to scrape it again and re-write the description and long description.

It works best when I use it to import about ten galleries at a time, and then write some original text by visiting the gallery.

I've been using Blog Post Builder and am way more impressed with it. I can do a gallery post almost as quickly, and the post is much higher quality, because I selected and cropped the pic myself, renamed the jpg, put in alt text, and had what I needed to write a good entry.

I was still pretty much planning on buying Gallery Scraper and Blog Organizer - I hope Blog Organizer is more completely thought out than the current version of Gallery Scraper.

Bill Blogs Organiser can build a shitload of sites fast and it's nice being able to control everything from one admin
The downside of BO is there aren't a bunch of plugins like WP

I'm going to pass on Gallery Scraper for now, I want to see what photo I'm useing and I'm used to just pasteing the info into a template then pasteing that into the blog
