One of the things I do is all my recips are coded
Code:
<a href="http://www.domain.com/" class="recips">Link List Name</a>
And in my style sheet, I set that. That way, I can change the look of all the recips in one place.
One line recips are fine. 30+ is fine. I'd rather be in a page with 30+ links then one no one visits because you didn't put me with other big link lists.
