Free site rejected, please help me understand why

Hi everybody

Would like your help making me understand why this free site was rejected.

Yes , I know it's on a free host but am still struggling to understand the complexity of the business before going to paid host and making very costly mistakes.

http://bert2000pt.sexbomber.com/site...mina/index.htm

Got this message from the "rejecter":
> > Reason for rejection:
> > No single thumbnail pages meant for TGP sites. Multiple of these pages
put
> together to form a \'site\' will not work either.

Then I replied asking why, since I didn't understand the rejection and this is the second answer:
Sorry.
I try to keep my index free from these serie-produced "sites" like
this one.
You only have these two simple gallery pages with content which could be used for TGP site. And you have a few pages to glue them together.
Hope you understand this.
If i began to accept alle these "sites" like your i will loose my surfers very soon, they can get the same and much more at
TGP site and this is where they will go

Well, can someone please explain?
I thought my site design was according to free sites rules.

Thanks in advance
Bert

Your on a free host. That is pretty much enough to get you rejected anywhere these days (except in TGP land).

Third level domain for me is a 100% reject.

Beyond that, let's see. The content is dull, 30 pictures that could all be the same picture (except for minor changes in the hand / paddle position). You have 4 links (or maybe even 5) off of each page, another thing that will get you gigged.

Are these pages, by any chance, pages pre-made by the sponsor?

Are you using the same pages over and over with only slightly different thumbs? Are you using pretty much the same layout over and over? Is it a layout you came up with yourself of something from the "be an adult webmaster for free" toolkit?

Put it this way: I found any number of reasons to deline you site if you submitted it to me, and I didn't work very hard to find them

Thanks Alex

You are a killer but an upfront one.

Let me see.

The design and content are my own, not gotten somewhere.

I did get a lot of input from GG, Jim and other LLs / DIRs owner in this board about this site layout.

Free hosts is not the issue.

Index, tour and upsell pages - 3 links
Gal1 / gal 2 - 4 links
But that isn't the issue either.

Series pictures, yes, they are "dull", but that's what most people want - series.

Bottom line - I would like to understand why I was rejected, according to the mails I received.

Anyway, thank you for being so frank.

I don't really understand what the reviewer is talking about but those pictures are awfully boring. Who'd click on more than one of them?
