I'll give you a short update on how this industry developped over the years.
I can clearly remember the time where you had to get your server, buy your content, design your gallery and submit it to TGP/MGP. That's how it WAS done.
More sponsors/competition joined the market so sponsors had to do that little extra for their affiliates. We got to the point where sponsors actually provide you with ALL the tools you need to start making bling without investing ONE dime. You get free hosting, free content to use, some give you a custom design for your gallery template if you ask them and on top of that alot give you a free submit tool like an RS account or something and you have the balls to say you gonna start a revolution??
Let me say something to you, the revolution has already ended, it ended when we affiliates got all we could ever wish for.
On a side note, i don't have anything to do with any sponsor, i don't work for one and have no special relations with one.
Just had to get this of my chest, carry on.

Say what you want but I know what is a fact.
If a new big sponsor comes on the sceen and is willing to co-brand domains with affiilates then they will get tons of affiliates to sign up.
Those affiliates will move other sponsor banners to a lower priority.
I'm thinking of a easy way to do co-branding and if I find it I will be the first sponsor to offer it.
