But I got into other areas of the business and eventually my submitting mostly dropped by the wayside. Only so many hours in the day and I tent to prioritize where my time is spent.
Recently I added up the partner account fees of several of the tgp's that were on my old submit list from back then and it was close to $1000 bucks a month just for the privilege of submitting to them.
Times have sure changed.

Yes, a lot of things has changed, but I don't think that it's more difficult compared to when I started with gallery submitting. A few years you'd have to spend money for content and hosting, now you'd have to spend it for software, DBs, and maybe paid Spots/partner accounts.
