Hi all, I have made a new recip table for my freesites and just wanted all the reviewers to come and take a look and tell me if it is acceptable or not.

If it is acceptable that is great, if it is not please tell me what you want done to make it acceptable.

This is my first try at making my own recip links for lls so I just want to make sure it is good before I use it on my freesites.

Thanks and Cheers

30 links? That's a lot of recips.... little bit too many for my taste.
I might be picky, but I don't really like when names "break" either, like on these two....

Porn O Plenty XXX
Links

Greenguy's XXX
Links

Rather put in one less column and make all names like they are supposed to be, without breaking.

My 2 cents.

Sorry if I am wrong about this (I'm also new to the world of Freesites), but:

All recips have the same format.
I think the linklist owners would like you to use their format.

Personally I have no problems with that table although 30 isn't a common recip number :)

Thanks for the replies

Hey plateman thanks for always accepting just sent out todays site so you have another one there Im sure!

ok Im gonna try to use a similar recip table on my site tomorrow and see how it goes.

Maybe 30 recips is a bit high I might trim it back to 20 or so.

Thanks all for the replies

I prefer to see no more than 16 recips. Makes your site cleaner and less traffic leaks for you!

It's not that pleasing to the eye - I think 6 across is too many to jam into a 750 wide table.

Ok I widdled it down to 20 I think it looks better.

Heres the site for tomorrow with the newest table so if your on the recip table let me know if its good if you havent already.

The site looks good and the table looks much better at 20 instead of 30. You might want to try and make the tabel 4 wide and 5 high and keep the table at 700 and it should stretch the names a bit so they don't look as stacked.

It looks nice. But 30 recips are too much. Try to make it 15. You will be fine with most of the linklists.

I did up a little sample of how a little CSS can really help with recip table layout and overall page layout with only a little code.

<html>
<head>
<title>Untitled</title>
<style type="text/css">
.recips td {background-color:#4f4300; text-align:center; width:140; height:60; border: 1px solid gold;}
.recips a { color: #ffff00; font-size: 12px; font-family:tahoma,arial,sans serif; text-decoration: none; }
.recips b a {color:#ffffcc;}
</style>
</head>
<body bgcolor="black">

<table class="recips">

I'd make that table only four columns wide and five rows high (assuming you are sticking with 20). That way could have some breathing room in there instead of forcing line breaks in unnatural areas. I'd would also balance it out so that the ones that are three lines of text all end up in the same row, and so on. It's kind of crappy looking when the text is jammed up against the cell borders too.
