Question for TGP owners/reviewers:

I have decided to try some gallery submission and I´m trying to perfect the process. I have a question for the TGP owners/reviewers.

When makings several galleries on the same content and templates (multiple pages on the same galleries), what kind of directory structure do you prefer?

1) The easiest for me would be to make galleries like this:
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index.php?id=1
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index.php?id=2
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index.php?id=3
and forward.........

Where id=1 refers to a group of 3-4 receps and id=2 refers to another group of 3-4 receps. That way I could use the same page but still have a unlimited gallerypages each with 3-4 receps (and all the content in the same folder.

I´m guessing that TGP´s doesn´t like that very much?

2) Or I could do it like this:
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index1.html (or php)
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index2.html (or php)
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/index3.html (or php)

Which would allow me to keep the content in the same folder. Pretty much the same approach as the first one, but with several "pages" instead of just one php page that pulls the recep-groups depending on the "id" variable.

3) Or I could make it:
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/1/index.html (or php)
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/2/index.html (or php)
http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/3/index.html (or php)

Which would put each gallery in a seperate folder.
I have a feeling that TGP´s prefer this model but is it nessecary to put the content in each folder, or can I pull the images/movies from the main folder from the gallery eg. http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/ and have the index files in http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/1/ and http://www.domain/galleries/gallery1/2/ and so on...

Please let me know which structure you prefer, also please let me know if it´s directory structure is a big deal or not that big of an issue. Any other comments are also welcome.

Also, how do you feel about using php files instead of html files? (The reason I ask is that I use my own stats script, that allows me to track the traffic across many sites and pages in one admin panel, not because I want to change anything to the galleries after thay are listed. I know, I know - I can use server stats, but my custom script is just soooo much better for me).

Thank you :-)
