We have been seeing a few requests for sites to get a review. Which brings me to show you what I am working on right now!

Infact it is a gallery. http://www.puckeredbutts.com/gallery1/sample.html

please be nasty.. really need to know what you think.. ohh and don't click the pics as they are not uploaded yet, and yeah I know its the same little pic.. I am mostly after the kicking and cruelty critic to give me some tips. Been away from the gallery seen for awhile and as you can see it shows!


Its not a joke, I am getting back to promoting you guys also!

While the layout is OK, the color scheme is VERY bad, blue & beige, what were you drinking ? :p

the arrows ? not needed, useless distraction

the girl is very poor quality, gotta practice the "extract" a little more ;)

Monaro,

It looks like a good start. I like the color scheme. Your central graphic is a little fuzzy, but I like what you're doing.

Shouldn't it be "...mom I'd like" rather than "...mom I'll like"? Of course, that could just be a regional idiom difference.

Other than trying to get a clearer source pic for the center, I'd try to line up the last row of thimbnails. The table is dropping that row in the browser in IE, in FireFox, and in Galeon.

Looking good, Mark!

Your page weight is huge. It will take too long to load and will eat bandwidth. Get the page weight down to 80 at most. Then when you have your different thumbs and full size pics, you have room before the page becomes too heavy.

3 links to the sponsor is ok.

18 pics is good.

Thumbs are a standard size - good.

The layout is good. It's not crowded. The concept is cool.

As far as color scheme, it's personal preference. Some reviewers and surfers are going to love it, some will hate it. It's just how it is.

Change I'll to I'd.

Some basics to remember;
Page weight (Not too heavy. Surfers are impatient and it's a bandwidth waste if too heavy)

Quality of images (Not too dark, not too light... Not out of focus or too compressed...)

Full size images need to be at least 525 on the long side

Series pics work best to get listed. Non series is ok for some TGP's. Many of them make it clear in their rules they want series only.

Delicate balance between showing too much pink in a gallery vs. not showing enough

Make good quality preview thumbs in different sizes for thumb TGP's. Some of them you can use their script to cut one from the gallery, or their script will select one for you. Others, you actually need to upload a thumb.

Track your stats

Always use the same ID and email to submit

Don't get discouraged. Some sites take a few days to a few weeks to review. Some will review the gallery and then list you a month later. TGP takes time, but the gallery building, submitting and building a list gets easier.




You are off to a good start! <img src="http://www.adultisubmit4u.com/Smile/smiley_thumbsup.gif" width="49" height="32">
