I am FAR from an expert on TGPX, but I know that, as long as each category uses the same design/layout, you can set it up so that each pages loads off the exact same template, just using (these might not be the words for it) includes/variables, as well as their banner rotator, and the other bells-n-whistles they have in there.

Sunshine Lesbians uses TGPX and there's a grand total of TWO templates for the entire site:
1 - One for the index/main page
2 - One for all 40 of the category pages

Meaning that each of these loads from the same template:
Sunshine's Lesbian Amateurs
Sunshine's Lesbian Latinas

If you look at the HTML Sources side-by-side, you can see (or pretty much guess) which parts are includes/variables. Here's an example with the includes/variables in bold:

Top portion of the <head> from the amateur page:

Quote:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Sunshine's Lesbian Amateurs</title>
<meta name="description" content="My database of Lesbian Amateur porn sites with videos and pictures gathered by me, your favorite lesbian, Sunshine">
<meta name="keywords" content="lesbian amateurs, amateur lesbians, amateur lesbian movies, amateur lesbian videos">
<meta name="rating" content="RTA-5042-1996-1400-1577-RTA">
<base target="_self">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

Top portion of the <head> from the Latina page:

Quote:

<head>
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">
<title>Sunshine's Lesbian Latinas</title>
<meta name="description" content="My database of Lesbian Latina porn sites with videos and pictures gathered by me, your favorite lesbian, Sunshine">
<meta name="keywords" content="lesbian latinas, latina lesbians, latina lesbian movies, latina lesbian videos">
<meta name="rating" content="RTA-5042-1996-1400-1577-RTA">
<base target="_self">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

I'm sure someone around here can explain this a hell of a lot better than I am currently trying to
