Basic TGP standards

[RedCow]

Hi,

I’m considering making some galleries and submitting them to TGP’s…

Could someone please list the basic standards nowadays?
- number of links to sponsor/other sites
- number of pics
- size of pics/thumbs
- number of recip
- 2257 policy
- anything else I should know about…


Thanks,
RedCow

First: it's not as easy as it used to be... But still worth a try...

A lot of questions at once:
· number of links: the lowest I know from my submission list is a total of 5 outgoing links (that includes recips)!
· pics: 15 is o.k in most cases, some request 16, some only 12
· sizes:
  thumbs - the bigger the better (I still stick with 120x160 in most cases)
  images - anything over 600 pixels gets you listed on most sites (I usually go for 720 or so)
· recips: some request now single recip, most still 3 all up
· 2257: best to have a link (linked or not = search this board) somewhere on the page (I only put the URL on my galleries).
  Several scripts (mostly Comus) are now asking for a 2257 page.
· anything else: yep - style of galleries, sales pitch, etc. - all changed in recent months/years...

Good Luck!
