Gallery submission errors - GoFuckYourself.com

I've been doing this for a couple years, so not a newb, but not an expert either. But lately I'm getting a lot of errors when I submit galleries. Here's one that is especially mystifying:

********************
Your gallery has too few thumbnails. Make sure that your thumbnails
link directly to the full size image or movie.
We require a minimum of: 2
********************

Trust me I have thumbnails linked directly to the photos, and not linked to come up into a new page or window.

Just seems like theirs a lot of TGP's out there not maintaining their scripts. For example two TGPs that use the same submission program--one will work just fine for me, the other will give me some stupid error.

Any comments?

TGPs have sometimes some really wierd or funny reasons to reject you....

Like - your site contains banned word: "more" etc...

Yeah. If I were a tgp operator and noticed that no new submissions were coming in the first thing I'd check would be the script.

One thing I learned though, is when submitting en masse, NEVER mix your galleries. That is, if you submit to a movie post ONLY have movies hyperlinked. As tempting as it is to also link some nice stills to complement the movie, don't do it, you will utterly confuse the TGP submission scripts in a lot of cases. Not all the time, but a lot of the time.

There are specific 'mixed' TGPs for doing this, so you just have to keep it very organized, one gallery for movies, one for photos, one for mixed. It's really tempting to make one mixed page and submit to all as this would save time, but again, you'll hit problems.
