    go to forums that deal with images. like photoshop forums and things like that where people are always uploading pics to show off their work.

    if the site is quick and a nice design they will tell their friends

    lol. You either have to work hard by yourself or pay a SEO company to make the site popular. Nothing appears from nothing.

    one great way is that you can hire users for uploading images and pay them $$ on every few thousand views to those images.

    let me know if you need any help..i can show you some examples too.

    Thanks :)
