That's how sites such as this stay afloat, through advertising. If they weren't there, we wouldn't have this forum. With that in mind, I'm happy to live with them. I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

They will only be there for a while, and the page layout will change once again, nothing surer. Geoff - Decophile. Re: H1 new layout? 8Sep 18, 2010 9:37 pm What ads? All I see is a blank column to the right but then I have an ad blocker thingy. Re: H1 new layout? 9Sep 18, 2010 9:51 pm I don't know whether it's this new layout, but today nearly everytime I click on a link (new thread, or to type a reply) it takes me to a blank page. Plus it's really slow for me at the moment. I know there's been ads before, so I don't know if it's just a coincidence that suddenly they're on the right hand side and the forum's not working as well as it normally does. Re: H1 new layout? 11Sep 19, 2010 9:01 am I dont mind the ads being there on the right, not that I've actually paid any attention to what the actual ad is... as I use a tiny notebook, and now the threads are easier for me to read Re: H1 new layout? 12Sep 19, 2010 9:33 am Don't actually mind the ads, something has got to be paying for the maintenance this great site. It's a great opportunity for some targeted advertising, I wonder if they search the words in individual threads to post up relevant ads Re: H1 new layout? 13Sep 19, 2010 10:02 am jimnsal Don't actually mind the ads, something has got to be paying for the maintenance this great site. It's a great opportunity for some targeted advertising, I wonder if they search the words in individual threads to post up relevant ads Until views in the site are at odds with the advertisers. Re: H1 new layout? 14Sep 20, 2010 12:04 am I don't mind ads, but I preferred the ones up the top. It's been blocked by my ad blocker, so I just have a blank column on the right hand side. It's making it harder to read on my iPhone too, because the width has been decreased. viewtopic.php?f=31&t=37229 - our Iris 4! Re: H1 new layout? 16Sep 20, 2010 10:49 am Asian Girls For Love Or Marriage Are you kidding me!! Come on guys. I understand that you may have had to go to an ad model to pay for the server space, although I do find that difficult to believe as your main site is all about ads and suppliers that pay for the priviledge. But if that's the case, at least make the ads relevant to the demographic you have on the site. I don't want to come onto my thread with my wife and even kids crowding around so we can follow the adventures of our friends on the web forum just to be hit with an ad like that on the side of the thread. PLEASE, if you have to have ads, make them at least be family friendly!!

It makes the site look garish. If money is required for upkeep such as hosting costs or whatever, put up a collection tin, I am sure that the people who frequent this site would throw a few bob in to keep the place up and running. In saying that I don't see them either. Use firefox as your browser and install and app called AdBlock Plus. Never see or hear any of that again.

I don't mind the ads, but I find it a little disturbing to have that pushed in my face on a building forum!?!?! I had to look twice as I did not believe what I was seeing!! Re: H1 new layout? 19Sep 21, 2010 6:45 pm We believe we have resolved the issue of offending ads unintentionally appearing, and apologize for any inconvenience. We have filtered the entire list of following categories of ads, which by default Google unfilters: Weight Loss Video Games Sexual and Reproductive Health Ringtones and Downloadables Religion References to Sex & Sexuality Politics Get Rich Quick Drugs & Supplements Dating Cosmetic Procedures Please note we do not intend to display these types of ads at all. We hope Google's filtering system is fool proof, otherwise if you do happen to see any other offending or objectionable ad please advise via PM to 'homeone' so it can be individually filtered. Should you have any other concerns, please do not hesitate to PM 'homeone'. Re: H1 new layout? 20Sep 21, 2010 11:25 pm Thanks HomeOne. I kinda figured it was a glitch while you figured out the filtering. It was just a shock to se it there as my first ever introduction to the ad based format. Thanks again for tweaking it.
