nicedreams,

Make sure that you an htaccess file set up in your pic folder to prevent hotlinking (and make sure it's a separate folder than the samples that may be holinked by TGPs - if you upload samples to the TGP you're fine, but if you hard link them you won't be able to prevent hotlinking).

I got killed last week by a Chinese bulletin board, some nice guy had hotlinked an entire gallery of 15 pics. It took me a while to sort out, but those mothers will chew through your bandwidth like crazy.

Also, another thing that's been happening, which is nice, is the smaller TGP owners will suddenly plunk an e-mail in your box giving you partner status on theirs.

Cheers
