Initially when I had my blog directory I accepted them. After a couple of months and a back link check I changed my rules and wouldn't accept them.
The reason being is that if thumblogger finds a site it doesn't feels meets its T&C it disables them. Fair enough but they then put up a sales page, do not carry the links over from the site they disabled and make no attempt to notify the trade partners of what had happened.
I think the only ones that still accept them are either owned by the owner of thumblogger or those that are poorly maintained.
