I dont programing.
I know how to take pictures, but dont have the equipment or the models.

What I'm looking for in the biz is a somewhat steady income.
Nazgrel,
My take on it is this - if you're looking for extra income, there are things you can do that won't require any investment at all while you learn the ropes.

If your english is good and you have a knack for writing kink:
you can write descriptions, reviews, stories...
If that isn't your thing, you can look for TGPs/MGPs that are looking for reviewers for pay (and not in exchange for listings)
That's to start off.

If you want to go the gallery submission route - I have to say that you really need to know the basics of marketing to the porn surfers. Even with free listings, you still have bandwidth costs and in order for this to be profitable, you need to know your market.

If DamageX is willing to help - you should take this 'window of opportunity' and learn from him. Having a mentor who knows his stuff is already 10 steps ahead of the next guy.

Good Luck!
