Guess I chose a good day to be away from the desk.


Here is my little bitty bit o' input on accepting galleries on a link list, and yes - I definately agree that by mixing galleries and free site listings, by default, means it is not a link list. (allow me to duck as DD tosses a brick at my head) I believe GG prefers the term 'morphed conglomerate'. I still list galleries from a very small handful of submitters on WW. But I did not build a link list with the intention of accepting galleries. It was the other way around. I had a crappy TGP that I decided to slowly phase into a link list to see if it could be salvaged. Every week I try to weed out more and more old galleries. If there is one thing I have noticed since I began accepting free site submissions, it's that galleries on a non-skim site are nothing more than a traffic leak. A couple of my current gallery submitters do submit gals that bring in some hits, but most are dead wait. (Free sites and link lists have a much more cooperative relationship.) So, if you really want my opinion, it would be to toss the gallery listings out the door, or at the very least, keep them seperate from the free site listings the way Cleo does.
