I may be too high, just a bit confused...

I figure feeder traffic. I mean to start a small tgp you need only 10-20 uniques before you can start trading. If, as a webmaster, you can not ruffle up 20 uniques to send to a gallery which would no doubt result in thumb clicks/trades, you suck. However, alternatively you do have a point. A whole tgp system could be built around such a model I guess. I.e. every gallery listed on the tgp is a 'trader' gallery. If this were to happen though, I would stress that a % of the thumbs would have to link to other galleries so as not to allow the surfer to be too comfortable.
This is just an afterthought though, I don't think it would be any problem running it purely as gallery trades. I have started TGP's with 0 trades and 0 feeder traffic, and had a few hundred uniques by the next day. Simply signing up for trades usually assures you a few uniques, which with a well set page equals clicks, and than trades which allows for the process to repeat.
