This has been an interesting thread to read
Let's look at this from a TGP point of view - TGP's have been asking for text based recips for quite a long time now. Now, I know this was 1st based on bandwidth issues, but now I'm seeing the same set up's as fat as the text goes with the TGP's.
As far as link lists, is it reall that much trouble to go to the recip page, copy the code form the text box & place it on your page? Hell, that's faster than saving the button, uploading it & then putting it onto your pages (plus, it does save bandwidth - LOL)
And in the end, even though no one wants to hear this.....
