Remember, free sites lose most of their "new site" traffic within a few days, but the SE bots keep visiting. A nice link with text is much more beneficial, I think.
I am NOT a fan of the return links with marquee and scrolling text on them. I think that is pushing the edge a bit. Some of them are okay, but some of them are VERY aggressive.

I wonder if we, as the LL, wouldnt get just as much value from the SE spider if they were moved below the enter button.
I do agree text is better.. and well used html is better than a graphic.. but I'm not sure it hasnt gone overboard is my issue. (btw, personally I think anything over 120x60 is too big, even in html)
Obviously everyone thinks their recips are reasonable... and as if freesite builders will whine to you about your own recip.. they post theads not mentioning names complaining about size in general.... and thats what I agree on.. I just think the overall panel many builders use has crept up in size out of all proportion...
and basically has gone past the point where bigger is more helpful... I think it is now costing you, me and our submitters unnecesary lost conversions, for zero extra benefit to anyone.
