I see the point of #1
The only thing that stops me from putting up such text recips is that the "more lazy" webmaster will just copy that code, put it on his site between a bunch of other recips that do have fancy colors/buttons and doesn't change the text color so that in some cases it has almost the same color as the background that it's on. So my recip will look crappy
