Question on LLs rules

[bert2000pt]

Hi everybody

Have a question on rules.

Most link lists, directories, etc say in their rules, free sites must have a warning page, 2 galleries, each thumbnail opening a picture. They don't want pictures opened in a another html page.

Is there any logical explanation for this?

As a newbie, I think opening each picture in it's own page would permit more sponsors visibilty, hence, more potencial for sales/conversions.

So, if anybody has a reasonable explanation, would love to read it.

Thanks in advance

Bert
