A - The sponsor banner. You can place a banner anywhere on your gallery. We have it at the top of the page so it is the first thing viewed by the
surfer.
B - The Thumbnail Gallery. Each thumb is placed within a cell on a multi-row, multi-column table. You are not limited to 15 thumbs. A gallery can typically have anywhere from 10-20 thumbs.
C - Sponsor Text Link. Place your sponsor text link on any part of your gallery, but remember to have it in a prominent position so the surfer is sure to read it.
D - TGP Reciprocal Buttons. Three recip buttons are usually the accepted amount to put on your page if you choose to have recips. Some builders place these at the top of their galleries.
E - Counter Banner. You will want to know how many surfers visited your page and from where they came. The counter will track the visits to your gallery so you can better assess your traffic. Most TGPs consider this a sponsor link. You probably won't need to put up a third-party counter since most hosting accounts will track your traffic for you internally with their own tracking software.
This template is just ONE example of a gallery page. Your gallery can have any background or text colors you choose. You might want to rap your sponsor banners around your thumbnails or use a small text story to spice up your gallery. To get a better idea of what galleries get listed, visit these TGP sites and browse through their daily links and listing guidelines:
