I need one of those bird thingies Homer had for the Y key.  I'll set it over my mouse with my mouse over the Refresh button, and then I'll go to work.

Reminds me of DAoC crafting! BOOYAH!

Once again, please don't auto refresh. It actually doesn't help. Unique page views is what matters. I'd really like to see how this performs under normal everday use.

But I have to keep hitting refresh to be entertained by the ads :) This one's for Ironwood:

Ad blockers are for people who hate america and freedom.

No ad blockers here.  It's not my fault you haven't put the ad code into all the skins, now is it?  I actually have no problems viewing ads at all, and have found some pretty interesting sites following random ad links before.

Argh! Pop up ad begone from my machine!

One of the Circuit City ads is trying to do a pop-over flash job, but instead is popping inbetween the forum architecture.  (Under the titles, news box, etc.) Interesting effect, I'll see if I can get a shot and post it.

Oh good. It wasn't just me. Are these ads supposed to be able to do that? Because that will get me to turn on ad blocking instantly.

Yeah I don't even get the CC ads anymore.. so either an Admin had the same problem or it was a fluke of the early morning.  I recall the one I had problems with had a laptop.   The roll-over ad was obnoxious, too, but at least it was avoidable.

Got that huge circuit city one too.  I'm at work right now so couldn't get a snap... and my home computer doesn't display ads.

Oh I see it too, I don't think it really matters if it expands under the top stuff, I mean it's their code, it's their problem.

The CC one that appears in the middle of the screen and follow you around though, don't know what I think about that.

I can honestly say I do not mind the ads. I hardly notice them at all.


So how does the money part work? How often am I "contributing" to the f13 coffers?

It might've just needed an adjustment period. Or they tried to sneak in some evil. Those crazy ones only appear once in 24 hours I think when they're activated (which they aren't)....but they uhm, hmmmm. Yea, you know what I'm getting at.

Yeah I got the huge follow-you one early this morning.  It was the one doing the funky weave-behind-the-frames thing.   I didn't see it but the one time, but thought I should post about it.  I get the roll-over ones a lot at work, but like I said those are at least avoidable.

Here at home I haven't seen anything except PSA ads.  IE at work Firefox at home.

Osama Bin Laden was hiding in my bushes today, trying to draw a bead on my dog with his sniper rifle.  But thanks to Schild and ready.gov, I knew my pet would be a terror target!  Thanks f13!

What company is it now? Speaking of, it took you more time to post that complaint than it probably took for "the pain" to go away.

are all themes getting ads? Mine doesn't have any :( I feel left out :(

As a matter of fact I swallowed one of these about two hours ago and the explanation is that it is, in fact, my hand.
