I mean, you'd bait your hook (create gallery), then cast your line in the water (hand-submit gallery to 50+ TGPs), and wait for a fish to bite (watch your stats go up), then reel em in (check the mailbox for sponsor cheques).

Got my best sales from Shemp, the hun, al4a and a few others. Then lesser amounts of sales from gregpix, elephantlist, worldsex, snakesworld, etc.

No, the OP is right, those were pretty good days, good times. I remember getting 6 sales in one day on a few different occasions from Shemp's site, on a bangbus gallery about a month or two after bangbus went live. 8-to-14 sales a day total, and that was just from one sponsor. Most of us were pushing one to three dozen at any given time. Why would anyone NOT miss times like that? For about 3-4 hours work every morning the rewards were sweet.

CD, thanks for reminding me that i used to be wealthy ...
