I am not sure how "skim" is measured (I know you told me once before Toby but I have forgotten).
For example - on your update today to see the actual gallery
Strictly Glam - 1 click
Lara Larsen - 4 clicks
Holly Randall - 2 clicks
Garrys Girls - 1 click
Alta Heels - 2 clicks
Club Dom - 1 click
Now I guess that's only a snapshot and that the number of clicks varies every time the page is loaded via a script.
I believe, probably in an old fashioned way, that when I see a gallery I like I want to click on the thumb and see it. Simple as. Your site(s) aren't too bad but some others are ridiculous.
All my sites are 0% skim - one click gets the gallery or at worst an index page for that models gallery collection. There are no external links except the tables at the side etc.
With you on the conversion model. Everyone gets a few chances at first then maybe the odd one after. My top 5 models all convert with incredible consistency - and few if any have ever updated the front end of their sites.
