Now when you build thousands of galleries a year, you know what that will do to the TGP/MGPs/Free Sites/Blogs & their submitters? Programs can probably handle the transition but a lot of you, will have to go back and change the galleries, scripts will have to be modified to scan and accept HTML pages from the thumb - the actual thumb will probably need it's own HTML page too.... Brace yourselves if it's not clarified, modified or removed from the new recordkeeping rules!

Technically, even if you
had to create HTML page for each picture, the pic is still in a directory. You can just right-click, choose properties, and copy-paste to source...ending up the same way as non-html galleries.
Off course you can avoid this with htaccess for common browsers, but still there are browsers, ways of surfing and software that can access/hotlink the pic directly, outside the html page.
So basically, it makes no sense requiring that, because you would break the law anyway.
