FS: First up, remember that the 800 X600 rule doesn't mean you can make your page 800 pixels wide - it means it has to fit on an 800 X 600 screen browser without sideways scrollbars. That means a number something like 740 wide otherwise the scroll bars appear.

Really though, it isn't important.

Your site isn't a "free site" in the link list view of things. It is a promotional hub. It is a place to send surfers to try to sell them something. It has hundreds of pictures, a pile of links, and just generally doesn't conform in the slightest to the idea of a free site that link sites are looking for (and I run link sites, I know what I am looking for).

You site might or might not be nice. It might or might not sell. The design may or may not be nice. That is not subject of discussion here.

The simple fact is: Your site is not a free site, so submitting it to greenguy or findpics or tommy or whoever isn't going to get you listed. It doesn't matter if you change the size of a table or whatever... your site isn't what anyone is looking for.

Now, before you call me a meanie and say that we have no clue, let me explain a simple thing to you: If you want traffic from greenguy or whoever, you build sites that match their rules. Don't claim or suggest you have "a better thing" or that you deserve some sort of special rules because your site is somehow superior. You want the traffic, you follow the rules.

As a side note, I don't like .info domain sites (the .info registry isn't for porn sites).
