joiseystud Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Whats with the enormous google ad at the top of every page. Its huge. Shouldnt it be either a thin horizontal banner or a vertical banner on one side of the page? Make it smaller and I will click on some of the links. I refuse to click on the interesting ads until this thing is not so huge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just think they dont need to get in the way so much. Look at www.ford-trucks.com and most every other forum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fordmantpw Posted January 26, 2011 Share Posted January 26, 2011 Most other forums have ads top, bottom, and the sides. The only ads here are at the top, and honestly, they are not that intrusive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joiseystud Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 (edited) ok I guess its subjective. To me they are intrusive. Normal banner ads at the top of a page are 728x90pixel leaderboards. I know as I use adsense on many of my sites including a forum of my own. Anyway not trying to cause trouble, i just think that people would still see the ads if they were normal size.

joiseystud Posted January 26, 2011 Author Share Posted January 26, 2011 ps if there is an option to donate money as a financial supporter and when I login i get no ads I would do that in a second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
