nice tut though I would miss one how I can implement form fill elements when I add my own gallery into the databas e.. it doesn not seem to work properly at my aned

im not sure about all the little tricks and tips but i might make another page that has a few of them on there to help people out.

okay, im bumping this cuz im going to be making a "Tips & tricks" page for the tutorial, so if anyone has any, please post them :) thanks!

yup - this isn't difficult.

you have to alter the html on the "duplicate" page in the "recip links template" box. Set the number of recips to one less than you normally use...

ie

if you use 3 recips, but want one of them to be yours, set recip links per page to 2.
if you use 4 recips, but want one of them to be yours, set recip links per page to 3.

here's an example of my code - that will put in 3 recip links with one of them being mine to www.drunkenams.com

<table align="center" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2" width="85%">
<tr>
<td>
<div align="center"><recip></div>
</td>
<td>
<div align="center"><recip></div>
</td>
<td>
<div align="center"><a href="http://www.drunkenams.com"><img src="../../recips/dastgp.gif" border="0"></a></div>
</td>

example url with recips in action :
http://www.ukslappas.com/galleries/t.../mature20.html

hope this helps :) you will obviously have to change the url and absolute path to your recips folder.

If anyone doesn't understand I'm on icq 156-55034

E.Kant I can help you do this - get a hold of me on icq if needed (number in post above)

next tip - adding partner accounts
 

Chameleon is an immensely powerful tool - but it needs some tweaking to get it working properly...as mentioned before in this thread if you don't use it properly it can lead to you getting banned at some sites.

imho it is very important you control what pages are submitted where, particularly when it comes to your partner accounts.

Partner accounts are getting harder and harder to get hold of for free, so the last thing you want to do is piss off tgp owners and get banned.

If you do get any partner accounts, the last thing you want to do is just add in the login/pass and leave it. This is very unwise - true the submitter will fill in the form sections for you automatically, and this is all well and good - but you are still not controlling the other recips that it puts at the top of the page.

This is one of chameleon's downfalls - but with a little tweaking it can easily be controlled.

All my partner accounts in chameleon, I have complete control of exactly which 3 recips are put in each and every time on top of the galleries.

I'll give an example for hanks galleries.

Obviously I need his recip...and I want mine in there as well. Thats 2, with one left. With a big site such as hanks putting in a 3rd recip for some small pissy site (as chameleon may well do) is pointless. This will just piss him off, you probably won't get listed, and you may even get banned.

big important tgps like recips listed with theirs of similar size.
luckily this can be set up with chameleon quite easily on the "rules" page.

for "reciprocal type", instead of choosing "image" and just picking the recip image, you need to set the reciprocal link type as "html" instead, AND set it to single. this is very important. it means that chameleon will only submit this generated page to one site ie hanks galleries.

in the html section you would use something like this

<TABLE ALIGN="center" CELLPADDING="8" CELLSPACING="2" WIDTH="700">
<TR><TD><DIV ALIGN="center"><A HREF="http://www.madthumbs.com"><IMG SRC="../../recips/girls-recip.gif" BORDER="0"></A><RECIP></DIV></TD><TD>
<DIV ALIGN="center"><A HREF="http://www.hanksgalleries.com/"><IMG SRC="../../recips/hanks.gif" BORDER="0"></A></DIV></TD><TD>
<DIV ALIGN="center"><A HREF="http://www.drunkenams.com"><IMG SRC="../../recips/dastgp.gif" WIDTH="120" HEIGHT="60" BORDER="0"></A><RECIP></DIV></TD></TR>
</TABLE>

copy paste this into an html editor to see what i have done if needed.

this example always puts mad thumbs recip with hanks recip, plus one to my own tgp.

this gallery will only be submitted to hanks, the recips will always be the same, so no chance of getting a ban.

hint : you could use the same html for madthumbs as well, again setting the recip type to "single" in the madthumbs record

it's worth bearing in mind that about 20 of the biggest sites, I always submit to by hand in GASS, or you could fix up a simple page to use in IE doing exactly the same job.

some sites its just not worth bunging them thru an auto submitter.

ok babagirls hope this can be added to your tips and tricks section...
