For all of you just tuning into the TGP market for the first time in several years let me clarify what Steve Grogan and I are both saying.
The TGP traffic trade takes a percentage of clicks and redirects them to ANOTHER TGP as part of the trade. So the user isnt taken to a competitors gallery or the content isnt used to go to another gallery -- only another TGP. Which yes increases your traffic by trading out with others in your trade network. Thats why is important to know the people that are submitting galleries as well as the people you are trading with.
The other board discussion came up when the Thumb was created and linked to a gallery page and not a trade.
Some of us are working on a trusted site that covers both aspects for all users of Oprano. More updates as progress is made.

You hit the nail on the head, Gonzo.. and the thing that this particular person isn't realizing, is that oftentimes their galleries will get listed on these other sites that the traffic is being directed to as well, so they aren't really losing out on anything. In the long run it means MORe traffic to their program, not less.
