It goes two ways though. I agree that there are lots of really cheap newbie webmasters who don't want to invest a dime in their business, but can you blame them when you look at some of these rules that TGPs have now?

(1) You have to pay $$ for a gallery on this TGP.
(2) If I like it, I'll list it. If I don't, no refunds.
(3) You have to have a partner account and that will cost you more.
(4) In addition to the fee, you must have a large reciprocal link at the top of your gallery.
(5) You can only have ONE sponsor link and that has to be at the bottom of your gallery in no higher than a number 2 font, with no bold or italics. Preferably the color of the link should be the same as the color of your background.
(6) If someone should find and click on your sponsor link, there can't be anything I don't like on those pages.
(7) If you violate any of these rules, even by mistake, I will track you down and murder your entire family and then blacklist you for eternity and tell all my friends.

And people wonder why nobody, except the TGP owner, makes $$ with galleries.
