I haven't heard of 64arts.net.. but from what I see, it looks really spammy, with just excerpts of posts and then a backlink. I would recommend you take away the comment - we should give links to legitimate sites, not spammy sites like that. While it may be no harm now doing this - who knows what they are up to in the future? Remember that when you give them a link you are in a sense "promoting" them. With what is going on in their site, I think you are better off without linking to them. Especially when our blogs are still young. :) Hey ky,
