I just had to write and say "mea culpa" for sending a partner application with your site which didn't even respect the #1 rule you have listed. I trully am deeply ashamed of missing such a thing when I visited your site to post my application. Please accept my humble appologies.

Please discard the application that came from johnnyr - webmaster@pleasuredelivery.com on the domain comecum.net. However, if you've got the time to take a look at those samples I sent and let me know wheter or not are those type of sites ones you would list, I would appreciate it (so I know wheter or not to make another application once I raise another 5 sites).

On a separate note, I'm new at this whole freesite building thing and I'm stressing many LL webmasters replying to emails and asking what probably are silly questions. And, they didn't seem to mind either - what a change from the MGP game. So may I ask what made you adhere to such a rule? Because IMO it doesn't make much difference where the content is, but I'm probably missing something and you've had good reason to ask for this. If those reasons are none of my business, I'll understand.

Basically it comes down to the reviewers not having the time to go looking at what domains are owned be who to see if hotlinking would be allowed.

All the TGPs that I submit to have this same rule.

Why not just put everything on the same domain?

[JohnnyR]

everything is on the same domain. Either I got something terribly wrong, either I didn't make myself clear.

When I build my sites the structure would be this:

/site/ would contain main.htm, gallery1&2.htm & content

/site/a #/ would contain the multiplied indexes (which are linking ../ back to the main page which links to galleries and then to the content).

Now, your rule says I must have the content in the same folder as the entrance page. To me, that sounds like I need to have the content in /site/a #/ Which, in my scheme, only contains the indexes for each group of linklists. As I understand your rule, it would mean that the index wouldn't go ../main.htm but will directly go to main.htm and then galleries and then content (all in /site/a #). (and that would mean, should every LL have a rule like that, that I would basically have to copy the content in every&all index's directories) - which would be eating a hell of a lot of space from my poor lil' server.

Am I getting this wrong?

[Cleo]

I haven't really had time to look at your submission and I misunderstood what you wear asking. As long as you put my recip on a page that is going to be getting a decent amount of traffic I would probably overlook everything not being in the same folder.

[JohnnyR]

It would be pretty much clear where exactly on my list you are once you review my application.

[Cleo]

I do not see a partner request from webmaster@pleasuredelivery.com

Did you fill out the form that I have?

[JohnnyR]

Sure did, but since it didn't arrived I'm back at filling it again. You should have the application in a matter of minutes.

later edit: says I should hear from you in a couple of days. I remember reading the same lines tho the last time I submited that application... so maybe you might want to check out that script?

Did it arrive this time?

[Cleo]

Nothing wrong with the script but I get a lot of requests and don't really remember the ones that I toss into the trash.

[JohnnyR]

I get the point. I WILL get better. Thanks for your time.

[Cleo]

Actually your stuff is pretty decent. With just a few changes it would be listable.

[sue-fl]

Cleo have a question. Thumbs wrapped around the adds? I don't get what you mean. Is just the way the page is set up? Thanks!

[Cleo]

The ad should not be the center of focus of the page.
