Ad Test Discussion

[HCz]

Agreed; those annoy the bejesus out of me!

Yup. Those are just annoying and ugly.

[NSR500]

You can't hear them anymore because they're talking Kestryll through the proper coding syntax.

[freonr22]

So the new ad system will be sumbliminal and invisible?

[D53]

it doesn't bother me any since it doesn't run into posting areas like other forums.

[NiteQwill]

What kind of ads will the placeholder have?

I've always disliked ads.

But I understand that bills don't pay themselves...

I liked my avatar on the left...

[technique]

Well it looked like the other theme...where the adds are all down the right side..

[blackberg]

you should make it so everytime you read a tread it MAKES you read an ad first HAHAHHAAHAHAHA

It's suppose to be a constant on the right but for some reason it's shifting to the bottom in the sub-forums.

This mod is driving me nuts!!

I'm looking to replace the top billboard ads with the side column ads, they should be smaller and still allow more vendors room to advertise.

I just have to figure out which template is the one being a pain in the backside!

[Kestryll]

Okay, this is a pain in the butt!

The modification works as long as I only set it to show on the main page, if I tell it to display on all pages it moves to the bottom.

I think I need to work on this at home where I have VODKA!!

[760practicalshooter]

Looks good, get some v'i'dka in ya.

[Guns R Tools]

I don't know, it kinda limits viewing screen to narrow.
I prefer wide screen.

Could you insert ad between folders and/or between posts thus keeping same width.

I believe the top, bottom & main forum sections are using fixed div's, but the thread section is using variable divs... might be part of the issue.

Single Barrel is my price

[Black Majik]

Whoa, did this just turn on. My viewing space just decreased by 20%.

[shark92651]

My vote is to keep the ads at the top. They are the most visible there and, after all, we vendors are paying to have them seen. Also, I'm not a big fan of the small size - unless you are going to add small static banners in addition to rotating banner(s) similar to arfcom.

Oh, and not to get all up in yo biz-nass, but shouldn't this sort of experimentation happen on a test skin and not the live site? I've broken my own site more times than I want to admit doing the same thing
