1. It is sarettah, not sarette. I don't know who the fuck sarette is.

2. Your thumbs are screwed is the problem. It is not the size of the thumb, it is the fact that the images are distorted. It looks like you have lost the aspect ratio. Did you look at the image I posted? That is a screen print of the thumbs you have under your sample pictures link (or however you have the link worded). Do you see anything wrong with the thumbs in the image I posted?

3. Because the thumbs are distorted I can not use them to judge the image quality. Because of that I looked for a full size sample of some kind but it wasn't there. I am used to content stores that offer at least one or two full size samples for each set.

So, in summary: You need to fix the thumbs so that they present an accurate depiction of what the picture looks like. An example of the kind of thumbs I am talking about can be found on just about any free site or tgp. (here is a gallery from one of my blogs, please observe that the thumbs present the original apect ratio and therefore do not get distorted) http://cooterville.com/?gallery=sam_in_red_stockings. These thumbs are set at 250 on the wide side, I don't know if you need to go that big or if you might actually want to go bigger, it is the size I am currently using for most of my gallery builds. In addition, it would help to have at least one or two full size images to look at for each set so you can see what you are buying.

Hope that helps.

Edited in: I am not meaning to sound pissy. Sorry about that. It has been a pain in the ass day dealing with total idiots and some of that is carrying over. It is not actually meant to be directed at you. I was just trying to offer up some meaningful feedback.
