TGP2 might still be TGP and about giving away free content (5 pics is still 5 free pics) but it's more efficient for both gallery makers AND TGP OWNERS.
GMs get a 5 pic "warning page" or gallery index page which leads to the sponsors tour. Think of the 5 pic gallery as a free site index page that doesn't lead to several galleries of multiple pics but to 1 pic-on-html gateway pages that lead to the REAL galleries (sponsor site).
TGP owners send traffic to fast loading/visually simple (lots o' thumbs can distract the surfer ya'know). It's more like a "window shopping" experience. That's what TGP are about - being an online catalog of sorts. Quicker gallery views means more gallery views per session which means more traffic, more trades and more surfer friendly brownie points.
There's no reason a TGP2 gallery should be considered "low quality". Just call it a "scan collection". Personally, I'd rather post 4 galleries with 5 pics each than a single gallery with 20 mixed pics. I bet the surfer would like having these pics catagorized and linked to individually also.
Reviews have shown that the majority of bandwidth invested in TGP is from the gallery page and thumbs. This isn't good for anyone. Surfer (56k) waits. GM pays. TGP owner gets fewer clickthroughs per session from surfers expecting / being conditioned with that annoying world wide wait. Remember, "30 HOT TEENS" is just as much a blind link if the surfer waits for the gallery to download and finds he has no interest in the content offered than if he finds himself on a cj site after clicking the link. Smaller galleries help with that problem.
