However, the thing with hosted galleries is that they are not meant to be submitted to other tgps......but mostly used by tgp owners.
As a tgp owner, you need to inport the galleries in your script and make a thumbnail for each single one.
Imagine if you need to do a copy and paste of each one of the urls of the hosted galleries the sponsors provide when you want to load your script with a couple of thousands galleries!
That's why most people request list of hosted galleries in a format ready to import in the script.....cause they want to focus on cropping good thumbnails for each single gallery and handling traffic trades so the site can grow in traffic and make more sales.

This one I have never ever complained about.... I run TGPs too and I know what a pain in the ass it is. My problem is that we already do a lot of galleries, and those aren't good enough, some want you to make them their very own custom galleries and then host them and everything for them and they never even take the time to submit them. Or the ones that need extra special content, so we take days to gather everything they need and they never use it. The ones that actually use our materials once they ask for it? I have zero problems with them whatsoever..... in fact, I welcome making stuff for them.... it's the ones that we jump thru hoops for and offer them the world at their request and then they just never touch them. Like they want to see just how far they can push.
My complaints aren't as widespread as some are, mine stem 100% from our making things by special requests and then not having ever seen a single bit of traffic back from it. I once spent over a week gathering materials, making them to specs of an affiliate, I mean to the very letter of what was needed..... and was assured I wasn't doing this for nothing.... well guess what? I never seen even the FIRST hit from that week's work and it kind of pissed me off....... but I just used it all in another area, put them on the hosted galleries and someone is using it at least. lol
