Depends what you want. If you want help I'd say the forum is a better place to post then vs the gallery. If you just want more hits well good thumbnails cause that's all people have at first to go by. A well made home page though with good links around the web will get you more hits than here cause your picture is only going to be on the first page here for a very short time, two days if your lucky. Once it's off the main page your not going to get to many more hits. You could try live linking a signature on your posts pointing them to your gallery something like Gebe uses.
