Here is my no bullshit answer, I'm sure others will disagree.
I first tried Russian Submitter, and it works as advertised. It's an easy server side create your gallery, select your recips, download your galleries, upload to your host solution. I calculated daily traffic to be about 40-50k pageviews per gallery from using it for a month, of course your mileage will vary. Works as advertised, costs less, and they updated often.
Wanting something better I bought LinkUpPro. Awesome program, very easy to use when u get the hang of it. Gives you a ton of control over editing existing sites and adding new ones. Also it does linklists, TGP2, pic posts, movie posts, etc. For me it sent alot more traffic, even though he has last TGP sites to submit to. My guess is more TGP owners can easily spot a RS-made gallery by the filenames, but thats just a guess.
That being said, LUP needs a better updating feature and needs to be updated more often. On a typical submission I easily get 25% back as red flagged errors. I thought this was acceptible until I started fishing around and found alot of sites that weren't flagged as errors should have been as the submission didn't go through. Now with its robust editing features you could probably fix this, but I've got better things to do than to pay $$$ for an autosubmitter and have to redo all the sites. I'm waiting for the software's next update so hopefully these problems will be solved.
My recommendation: Hand submit to the biggest sites. I've got about 50 core sites I always hand submit to. I use G.A.S.S. to duplicate the recips and submit, works fast and well. After your core sites are done, use either LinkUpPro or Russian Submitter to take care of all the other sites out there. My first week of doing this gained me an extra 100k pageviews a day, and things are increasing steadily.
