Hopefully this won't come across like a Spacedog post. I'm just looking for some advice only......

I'm basically in a bad situation right now, and have been. To sum it up, I'm 23, no job, no car, only 1 friend (who lives a hour away, so we rarely hang out), still live at home, $300 to my name, etc... Yeah, typical lamer.

I know, I know, get a job. I'm trying, but it has to be like within 5 min of home b/c it's such a chore for my mom to drive or something. Funny, b/c I worked for her cleaning service on the graveyard shift for MANY years for next to nothing because she couldn't afford to pay me much (below min. wage, but I didn't mind). Then I quit that b/c I physically couldn't take it anymore, and she had to hire someone else and pay them normal. I think working for her so many years for so little is what put me behind.

Anyway, I have been mostly lurking here for a couple months and reading as much as possible on xxx sites. I did make some galleries awhile back, but got only a 1/100 clickthru rate, and no sales. I wasn't really trying tho, just trying things out.

So, do you guys think someone like me could start out without putting money into it and using free hosts and work my way up a bit?

I was thinking about making a TGP, and me just doing all of the galleries. Then using the galleries I submit to other TGP's to drive traffic to my TGP. I don't know if that would work though. I really don't want to do JUST galleries and submit them around. I don't know if that's enough.

I know enough PHP to do my own scripts, and have messed with Photoshop a lot.

I guess I'm just trying to make enough to fix things a bit. Then move on from there. As quickly as possible. I really don't know what to do now, so I thought I'd try my hand at making some sites or something.
