I've had rating and commenting at Perv forever. Hardly anyone comments. Those who do, leave weird, sometimes sick comments. Not difficult to police though. The people who use the rating system (1-10 stars) almost always rate free sites really low.

I think the perfect thing to link to, for both surfers and SE's, is a hybrid gallery. You'd have a full text blog post on one side of the page and thumbnails on the other. Or any combination of heavy text and images. The SE's would get their text content and surfers would get their visual content without having to go through page after page to find it. The free site might be the biggest weakness in the link list game. We link to an index page with 3 ads, 12-20 recip links, and little to no page content. There's no balance between links out and content.
