Maybe "premium" was not the right word, and leads to a big misunderstanding. I only meant a place where upload is limited, so that there won't be the huge deluge that makes good pictures difficult to spot. There would be no selection for that premium gallery, ecveryone would be able to post, only, with a limit of 1 or 2 max. pictures per week. About the thumbnails, I think that the way the thumbnails are now, is probably the main problem of the galleries. Cryptic thumbnails that show only a naked tit or a gun, do not help at all in understanding what the picture is about, which is THE function of the thumbnails. Considering the way thumbnails are currently used (i.e. almost useless if not plainly deceiving), it would be much better not to have thumbnails at all. At least, the speed would increase and server load decrease.
