There are so many other programs out there that would love to make you happy to get your traffic. Surprising response.

I downloaded 2 zips (actually 3 because of the thumbs); took one look at the pic size and deleted them. My bigger complaint was Adam's inability to zip a folder without there being 6 subsequent others in the chain before finally getting to the pics.

Oh, it was more than 6...

That's not me being sarcastic. That's the actual directory structure of the 15th zip file.

That just sounded like a really "I'm tired of webmasters asking for everything" type response. Those people/sponsors need to step away from their keyboard and come back later when they are less burned out and realize that a legitimate question requires a thoughtful response.

If your affiliates can not use the content you provide and you refuse to assist them, and you can't see the point of making it right, it won't be long before you're like a fish on a beach gasping for air...

I would agree that webmasters have gotten spoiled and really don't put the effort into doing good work, but here you have a webmaster this IS willing and wants to do a good job and the sponsor says "I can't please everyone?" He should send you the pics out bigger. You can't make a bigger jpg from a smaller one b/c of the compression issues. It will look like crap.

I'd move on to another sponsor... there are plenty that are willing to do what it takes to make you both profit from your work.

I guess I could have said all that with a simple /agreed but I had to rant my 2 cents LOLOL

and not that this has anything to with anything.. but this is my "69th" post... 69 is such a great number

Move on Toby. <-That was my original advice. You can email him one more time and just let him know that if you can't get content required to submit to his tgps, you can't afford to submit his galleries just to have them declined because of the size of the images. Sure, it'd be great to be able to submit endlessly to TGPs and LLs, but many of us pay to submit a certain number of galleries and our submissions are money to us. We just can't afford not to get listed.
If he can't understand that then move on gracefully.->

Thanks, have already moved on. I pulled all links from my sites two days ago. Theres only one gallery still getting traffic from earlier TGP submits, all others have been removed from my server. I'll remove this last one too once the stats show it's no longer getting hits. I'd remove it now, but don't want to leave an active 404'd link on another TGP's site.

I'm not going to email again just to rub his nose in it, that's just not my style.

Well she is right, you can't please everyone...but you don't come right out and say it. I would be shocked if I received an email like that..however...as was pointed out earlier, it could be that the girl took it as just a complaint and not a request for something larger.

If she brings in a few sales, I would email back and see if the attitude is any differet
