I setup a site and people will be uploading their "tour" content or something?? I'm totally new to the concept of TGP.... I've always been a paysite guy, and I had to ask a buddy how the free sites work because I had no clue.
I also understand what you mean about the midget fucking ;-) I just wanted the free site to have a broad spectrum of pictures to look at you know.... and then let them sort thru it.... but I guess i really could gear it towards what the paysite will be, that way the recurring traffic will already be targeted to my market....
Thanks for the advice.... now what are some of these good TGP sites.... how much do they cost to setup? And is it really free? Like people will post pictures for no $ onto my site? That boggles my mind..... well I guess it doesn't if the pictures are linked to their site.... but how do I ensure they wont be bombarded by popups, spyware, etc?
Thanks everyone.... and Monaro I always treat what Mister X says as gospel ;-)
Thanks again people

There are two types of TGPs that I know of.
Real TGPs and fake ones.
Real TGPs:
thehun.com
shemp.com
The real one would be something you setup with TGP software and this software allows people to submit galleries to you.
Once they have submitted to you the same software allows you to review the galleries and and basically do one of three things
1. accept it
2. reject it
3. blacklist them
Go to one of the sites and look for a link called "webmaster" or "submit" and click on it and read the rules and guidelines to understand how they work.
heres a good tgp thread and some sage advise from the shemp

The second type would be a fake one.
This one looks like a real tgp but instead of accepting galleries you just put all your own in there and also get rotating galleries from your sponsor so they change everyday.
real = lots of work
fake = less work
some of the TGP gurus can let us know which is more profitable.
I'd also love it if some of them could add anything this that I left out
