I refrain myself from emiting an oppinion about freesites... but this I do know a little better. so

- pictures aren't a set... you've got mixed pictures from 2? 3? sets in there... I would say that you need a nice flow throught the gallery especially with tgp where you get a single shot.
- thumbs are watermarked. some people may not like it.
- although your gallery looks okay, it would probably be a good ideea to stick with pictures of the same format. or, if you do both, group them together. I'm talking about 4:3 vs. 3:4 pics... sometimes it looks odd. I'll say again, this gallery looks fine.
- the big pictures are kinda blurry, don't have a good "line definition", and they're too small in "file size". you're gonna have problems getting by the checking scripts - very likely your gallery to be tossed out by the script if the pics aren't at least 40kb, some places 50 kb. And if not, the top tgp's are simply going to reject it b/c they get lots of better quality stuff each day.
- the "Lenka is a hot Bikini Babe..." text may be a bit too small. I'd do size +1, even if it means cutting out on some text. Allmost nobody's gonna read it all anyways. Plus, try not to leave tables filled in with just text. A matching text-link after all that text will work better then if it's placed by itself on another table.
- I'm not sure about placing recips under that link either. Some people might and will mind. I'd suggest recips be placed at the top of that page, it seems to be the rule of thumb.
- I know top of the page is premium advertising spot, so that's probably why you put the link first, if so then scarap that "bikini sex" title. You don't need to have a title with TGPs. "Nude bikini sex gallery" can be taken down as well.
- Personally, I would do 3 recips/page. Some tgp owners won't like 4.
- If you're doing text recips, then do text for all. If you're doing tables/pics recips, then do it for all. If you have a small text link flanked by 2 table recips / pic recips, that text guy might get unhappy. Especially if he had a table/pic recip you could have used instead of text.
- 18 usc 2257 doesn't really need that much info. just "18 USC 2257 - LINK" usually does it, and makes it easyer to drop it at the end of your gallery and doesn't screw the design.
- maybe not have 3 "click here..." links on the page? As LL owners, TGP owners like a bit of variety. I know "click here" always works cuz the buggers do just that, but why not try either a banner which fits the layout/colours of your gallery, or some juicyer textlinks there? (but then again, this is marketing and what the hell do I know about THAT? I sure seem to suck)

Hmm... I've been at this for 5 minutes or so, so I guess it's gonna be quite a list when I hit "post". I hope it does help you out a bit.

I just want to mention that some of the things I said might be utter-bullshit. Some people might not agree, but all this is from my personal experience, and it's how I'd do it (and I seem not to be doing so bad with TGPs either).

In closing - your gallery does look nice, and as someone said to me about my freesites, you just need a little tweaking and you're gonna be good to go.
