Ok here is my observation so far.

Gallery width is to wide, 15% of the surfers still use 800 x 600 screen resolution, any designer should have known this so that was his mistake to make.

About the thumb galleries. Templates look very nice, it wouldn't harm to edit your thumbs in photoshop to make them look even a bit more nicer in quality. Now you just did a resize on them, try to improve them by using some filters.

The surfer likes to see plain and simple rows of thumbs that tell a little story. By placing and spreading the thumbs all over the template you take the "easy navigation" away.
You could also place a bit more general text on your galleries, don't underestimate the effect of a good written text.
Template design is fine.

The video galleries:

Screen caps for the vids are low quality, terrible stuff. Surfers like nice big screen caps for the videos in an excellent quality. Many programs are making this mistake. Check out TCG and Sapphic erotica, they know how to do it right.

I think the biggest mistake with your galleries is the template size. The graphic designer did a good job but you need to tweak things.

Also by placing your picture thumbs the way you do you take the easy to follow story away, that might result in a loss of interest.
