I do make category specific recips for all lists except those who ask for a certain general recip. (Sample)
I sometimes simply take out half a day to go through my entire list of LL's and get the recips for new categorys I want to test, and sort them into tables.
It takes time, but it's worth it I think... I now have ready tables for 11 or 12 different categories for about 80 LLs - all custom made.
So more or less whatever I feel like making, I have recips for it

But I do only use these custom ones, and never with more than 2 links, and always only link to one domain within a recip. And this is what most LL's have accepted

Coming into this with much caution since I do run different LinkLists.

On my main LL, I have 3 different ways to recip. Warning, main, or category. My other 2 are niche specific, and can be reciped to either warning, main, or main linklist. All are either a button, or simple text links. It's the submitters choice.

On my TGPs, I do use a small table with my colors, font, and text size.

Now, in defense of some of the other LL owners out there.....
Doing our recips in tables, using our specified colors makes sure our link can be seen. Too many times I have checked for a recip on a submitted site, and with the colors they use either for background, text, links, or visited links, you may, or may not be able to see the recip. I don't know if it's an accident, or possibly done on purpose, but at any rate, it's not right.

Just like you as a submitter get upset about all the different rules, we as LL owners get upset about the not so honest submitters that try to pull a fast one on us. If it wasn't for the dishonest submitters, and cheats, then we wouldn't have to have some of the rules, and ways of reciping that we do. It's a pain in the tush for all of us.
