New Google ads!
SirPeale:
I was just suprised to see ads on the site. I'm certainly not arguing with them, but when did this come to pass?
zaphod:
Just spotted them myself. Have to start scrolling down more now. Wonder how they'd look on the right side instead?
SirPeale:
No way, it's knock the whole site off. It's fine with me, it was just suprising.
rampy:
I'm of the opinion that it's a good thing.
Targeted and relevant links for the community, modest amount of revenue for Saint to pay for server.. win/win =)
*shrug* of course I've already sold out on my site...
it's not that obtrusive... you used to have scroll down the same for the "other sites forums" section that USED to be there (back in the day, before it was thankfully moved to a separate static section)
I for one welcome our new google adwords overlords.

Heh, you guys beat me to the punch. I'm experimenting. Nothing placement wise or color wise is permanent. I hate the way it looks on the main page right now. I think it looks ok on the message forums. I removed the "Don't miss the rest of the web site!" section on the template, so the scroll should be almost exactly the same.
I've just heard too many good things about the results of using Google Adsense not to try it. I'm hoping to be able to take down the donations link and have the site pay for itself completely.
I will never ever put a pop up ad on BYOAC. I'll gather aluminum cans first.
OK - so, comments on placement, colors, etc..., love the idea, hate the idea, don't give a patootie... alll welcome!
