Back in the days...

Back in the days..
1) You create a gallery full of hot pics, and a couple of banners or blind links
You then submit this gallery to like 60 TGPs. And in 24-48 hours you get up to 400,000 unique visitors to that page, sometimes ending up with 3-6 sign ups.

Wasn't that cool

You can still do 3-6 signups....one gallery submission to The Hun should get your around 3 signups if you use the right sponsor and design.

Exactly, back in the day I think about, if a gallery didn't do at least 50signups it was a fail and there was very few fails...

Back in those days, I was likely the one rejecting or approving a ton of your galleries.

I was reminiscing with an old buddy I used to work with years ago - and he jogged my memory about our days working in the video editing/duplicating lab for Canada's largest adult video distributor (at the time).


Back in the (pre-internet) day I...

1) knew the sound a room full of rack-mounted VCRs (78 of 'em) made when they simultaneously started and stopped recording all-at-once.

Only those in the video distribution market would know that sound.

It was wicked cool.

(funny how you recall weird little details like that...)
