Thumbnailseries

Our Overall Rating: A

Our Summary: A breath of fresh air to find a thumbnail based TGP that is designed with the surfers best interests in mind, rather than designed to take advantage of the surfer.

Unlike 99% of thumbnail based TGPs, thumbnailseries uses direct hyperlinks, and therefore does not skim surfers away from galleries. We also found it to be free of blindlinks.

We also found the layout and style to be surfer friendly. Minimal banners and small thumbs means it loads very quickly even on dail up.

One negative is the lack of a PICS label. If we had found something indicating the TGP was labeled as not safe for children it would have recieved an A+.

Overall we gave thumbnailseries high marks ... it is definitely the best of its breed!
