"Is it better to have one long, continuous 'main' page (which is generally what I have now), or is it better to split content out across multiple similiar pages (main1, main2, etc.)?"
Depends. SE's wont pay toooo much attention if its to long so be careful there. Multiple pages work but dont have tooooo many,
" If I create the gallery templates, they'll be plain and simple...should I get someone to make some for me? "
You can start with your own or hire someone. If you chose to hire look around plenty of people will do it. If you want to hire the best for the best price go to

"I have some video content I want to use, what format of video is recommended and about how long should the clips be? "
Depends on your surfers. WMV AVI or MPG. Those are the main ones. or you can make flash ones just depends on how you plan on using them. if its for MGP galleries then DONT use flash.
As for content. You can purchase that from lots of places as well. BUt it gets pricy. Depending on what type of content you need and where you live you may be able to shoot your own, but make sure you know about 2257 before you go much further.
