Hey bud:
ct and st are both TGP scripts. LM is a hosted solution. You feed it say 10,000 galleries (FHG dump) and it'll rip the content from the galleries and into it's system. (your server) From there it generates thumbnails and full-size images to your specs. You setup sponsor ads which are shown on the galleries. This gives you complete and total control over the content you promo. You can set weight values for individual galleries, or groups of galleries, see which images get clicked and when (unique and raw clicks for images, whole galleries, and even groups of galleries) decide on the sorting of the gallery images, crop thumbnails (while viewing the gallery itself), relocate galleries in your system (also moves via ftp to keep the same hierarchy) and the list goes on and on.
If you've used a paysite CMS, it's more similar to that in the way it presents it's content and the control you have over it. (You can set what content is added and when - hourly, daily, just image galleries, videos, mixed, etc)
The back-end of LM is really where all the power lies. It is truly unlike anything you've used before. You surf your site like a surfer does, with admin controls IN the content. So directly under everything thumbnail are admin controls for deleting, rotating, cropping, stats, etc.
Comus/ST are awesome TGP solutions, but this is an entirely different thing. We're not trying to improve TGPs, we're moving on to the next evolutionary step.
Feature-for-feature, LM compares favorably (and in some aspects surpasses) many of the $1500+ solutions we've seen posted here.
This is NOT a $149. script in practice. This is a $1k+ heavily tested script priced to move.
