Galleries with thumbs linked to html

[Rolo]

Would you list galleries where thumbs are linked to html pages with content? Like the old days, before problems with cheaters etc. Today with paid spots, hosted galleries and partner accounts, then it should be much more safe to let galleries link to html pages, so I´m wondering how those with TGPs/MGPs look at it.

Only on paid spots, sponsor hosted spots and people i really trust.

I dont mind giving that space up for some additional ads, but it does bother me when some cocksucker uses it as an opportunity to try to slip in a toolbar or something.

I'm looking for TGP sites that will take pics on html pages
I found a few who said they would, then their scripts kept kicking back my galleries, so basically gave up on it...
but if anyone allows this, let me know...no tool bars and only textlinks on the html page

paid spots and sponsor galleries.. As a webamster I wish they would do it on all galleries but as a TGP owner I wouldn't.

I have no problem at all with listing galleries with pics on html pages. As long as my surfers can see the top of the image without scrolling down, I'm fine with it. I'm still of the school that galleries are built for making money, not giving away free porn. Ads are part of the process.

As for my own sites, if TGP's/Link lists don't list sites with pics on html pages...I just don't submit. No harm, no foul. However, I'm not your basic tgp submitter. My traffic generating strategies are geared toward SE traffic.....

Now what can be done to convince TGPs to let Paid Spots and Hosted Galleries have content on html?

Should it be a demand when buying spots?
Maybe a higher payout on hosted galleries with thumbs linked to html?

I would love to see html back in the game, not just for the extra $, but also for the variety at TGPs - so many cookie cutter galleries that almost look the same. Giving them a extra dimension might be good :-)

Ofcourse the problem with cheating is there, but I think Paid Spots and Hosted Galleries are less likely to cheat. If there should be some rotten apples in the mix, then I´m sure it would be spread on the boards fast.

I would but I don't run any TGPs anymore. I think it is best to keep the free content providers happy.
