- You can make the text be keywords.
- Graphics are interesting and draw peoples eyes.

- You can add alt tags that have keywords and you could also use text links.
Some disadvantages would be...

- The text links can be hard to read if there is a lot of blue links on your page.
- Graphic disadvantages are the download times.
- The beveled effect is trying not to be used as much but people like it because it appears to be clickable.
