Oh WTF Tarpy@Pichunter

Got this email this AM as well. Not a good move for submitters IMHO. Not only does it add his links to header/footer it removes any design and layouts. Ouch! Makes all the galleries look the same? Hmm Why submit at all

And you wonder in these times how to make nice and original sites that can attract possible buyers/surfers and then something like this is killing everything with it's "no soul" apperance and makes your work useless.
Why make things worse ?

I can see what TarPy is trying to do, but it's at the expense of his submitters.

By converting all of these submitted galleries on hundreds of domains into pages hosted on his domain he's adding hundreds, or even thousands, of pages to enhance his own SE rank. (think blog and how well they do in the SERPs)

He's out to get his, fuck everyone else.

I spoke with Tarpy some time ago and he very much wants the galleries to look more like a google listing than anything. no animated gifs or anything. So I can't say I was surprised with the email this morning.

It sucks because I've made a lot of sales on that site and don't want to stop submitting there.

Google takes one thumb and links it to your gallery. Tarpy wants to rip all the thumbs on your gallery to his server, remove your ads, then add in his stuff and still have you host the conetnt..

Takes away those annoying banners we all like to put on our galleries as well it looks like.
