By using his work for skimming you are piggybacking on someone else's license who is piggybacking on someone else's license. And from the copyright holder's point of view, he should be selling three to four licenses on this set of images. Instead he's only selling one. And two other people are using his images without paying him.

By that logic a NON-thumb TGP would be costing you a loss since it links to a gallery, and if it didn't you would have sold another set to that TGP ... again, by that logic.
In actuality, the TGPs, Thumb TGPs, etc, create a demand for more content, spurning webmasters who submit to buy more content, and so the more of these the more you sell.
