Much depends on how much traffic the CSS Tableless Web Site is getting. If it is still considerable, then it may be worth continuing with it a little more - especially if it is generating any kind of revenue from advertising. It may also be driving traffic to other areas of your site, raising your profile, etc.

I remember how honored I felt when you first put me on the list (I have two sites on there, I think), but I’ve made many tableless sites since then that I’ve not bothered to submit. It feels like the message is already out there; however, as long as table-based designs outnumber their modern brethren, I suppose there will be a place for your CSS site.
