New Forum is Up! Still tweaking things though...

[~BrightestStar~]

Heh, Daimler Chrysler?

I'm pretty sure that entity doesn't exist anymore.....



Also, I'm confused as to why yesterday, in the afternoon, on this computer, there were no rollover ads, and now today they're back?

I think most people will get used to it pretty quickly. I know within a few days I won't even notice the ads anymore. I have noticed almost every board I frequent has ads now. Some of them have far more than IF, and I'm still able to ignore the ads and enjoy those boards. I really do think people can decide to be irritated by the ads or they can decide not to be irritated by them. I just figure nothing comes for free and if a few ads on the site are the price that's not a big problem.

This site ISN'T free for some of us.

Yes, it is free. No one is forced to pay to post here. You, like I, choose to pay for certain services we like, but we aren't required to pay to post.

Irritating advertisements weren't part of the deal back when the both of you became premium, and now they are. Hence, the complaining.

I choose to pay to post to support the site, not Google

Sicy, that does work, thanks.

$$$$$

 

[Sicy]

They were never removed. It's possible that you didn't let the pages load all the way. They only show when a page is fully loaded.

 

[Serena Vox]

Banner ads aren't that terrible.

They are for some of us folk on dial up. I was cool with that one that was up at the top before, but now that there's one at the bottom too, this site's even slower for me now.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Oh gosh, I just saw this:

I think it could really use a slight redesign. Call me nitpicky if you may, but the photos of the guys are bothering me. They're from different eras, they're cropped badly, and the shade of blue is too dark/doesn't match the site right. It looks like it was hastily slapped together.

I might redesign it myself later when I'm at home, just to see what I can do

 

[Galeongirl]

you're right tho!


Well perhaps they could start some design contest? Who makes the best one wins?

I know I'd be up for it!

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

Okay, how much better does this look?

I had to squeeze a little to get all of the text in there.

I do like that, that looks great. But Andy told me that to use an image, it had to be altered or else it would be a copyright violation. Which I think is why he made them blue.

 

[Moser]

AdBlock Plus!

I didn't even know there was advertising on this site.

Another victory for the fox.

I did alter it. They're removed from the background and under a blue filter.

what about this?

They need dastardly top hats. Then this picture wins.

Thanks for working that up, your fan art looks nice! I have now put it in place (see attachment).

SCORE! Thanks, it looks so much better than what was up there before


Now how you address some of our concerns, like getting rid of the evil text ad bar below the top ad?

 

[Galeongirl]

what about this?

I'm digging that one!

 

[~BrightestStar~]

what about this?

That, that there would possibly be enough to make me hesitate before bitching about the ads.


They do need hats tho.

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

what about this?

Is it bad that I think the mustache looks good on Bono?

 

[~BrightestStar~]

Not if you think he should be wearing the top hat too.

Cause, imho, it's perfect.

 

[bono_212]

Not my best work, but my public craves more, and I have homework to do. You all are going to have to live with this:

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

OMFG Ashley. Let's get married



EDIT: WAIT, I just remembered!

I have pics of Bono in a top hat already:

Someone mustachio one of these for me

 

[bono_212]

 

[DreamOutLoud13]

I love you.


(now quit surfing Interference and go do your homework! )


((Also, ANDY GET YOUR ASS IN HERE AND ANSWER ME ))

 

[Galeongirl]

You guys are fucking brilliant!

I bet we'd attract loads of new people if they had Bono with a top hat welcoming them!~
