Paid hosting has major benefits when it comes to TGPs looking for clean galleries as well as linklists... you also don't have that top banner to take most of your traffic. Normally, the revenue made from that top banner spot of YOURS (not the free hosts) is more than enough to cover the costs of the paid hosting, assuming you know what you're doing.
I would seriously consider looking into paid hosting for at least some of your sites -- I still use free hosts, but my biggest moneymakers, even though I am paying bandwidth bills, are on paid hosting, and good domain names.
