Sometimes criticism is good , but back to your question. I feel that by opening single websites for each, helps to organize things a little more than I could by opeing one website with many sections. BBAddons was originally founded as a graphics resource and has it trip around as more than that, but visitors/members seemed to like the idea of the graphics & styles being centralized so it was reverted back.

I don't like the idea of mixing free and paid material together, so combining vBulletinGraphics (a paying graphics resource) with BBAddons would contradict that. The reason for this is because if you start out with a free based graphics website (ie: BBAddons) then introduce paid graphics, the users are used to the free graphics and may not like the idea of the new section being added when you have to pay for graphics (while they may want or like to have the paid ones, they may not be able to afford them - $5 is not a lot, but for some it is - so they have to make due with what they can get at the time).

vBulletinTemplates.com was opened as a way to organize and centralize all the template modifications and template "hackers" (although that it is not really the correct term to use). There will be a section for all template modifications, postbit modifications, support queries (for modification only, not vBulletin code support), along with a few others.

vBulletinGraphics.com is the only website that brings in revenue, which I am fine with. This website helps pay for finaces to keep current and future websites alive and running. With the free based sites I run, I don't force them to donate, while it does help, it is not demanded.
