Whats with this add on

[steviek]

Does anyone else have this add on the left margin which runs down and pushes everything to the right?
Its really annoying I don't mind adds too much on the top or bottom but on the left margin give me a break.

Get Firefox and adblocker and block it. I don't get any ads on here and I don't pay for the premium account or whatever. Got to love it.

I donno... I haven't seen a single ad or pop up in years... Gotta love Firefox with adblocker.

[JoeShmoe]

Pop up blocker man.

[steviek]

So no one else sees this

I do. Lets see a show of hands... who wants to pay for a membership? Those ads are keeping this place free so whats the problem? 3/4" of an inch on the left side of the screen is way better IMO than shelling out monthly.

I see it and it's annoying as hell. As if this place doesn't make enough damn money, then they had to go and add that. I only get it on the main page, but still, they keep putting more and more up and they're getting more and more annoying. Pretty soon all we'll see is one big ass ad.

If you look in your upper right corner next to the banner ad, you will also notice the new addition of a "digg it" link. Now you can share info on AF with others.

Not sure what this has to do with this thread but whatever.

I also see that big ass add. It is rather annoying, I dont have a problem with the ones at the bottom or top.

And there are tons of free dsm sites. If they had a fee here no one would join, everyone would just move to another site. Im sure most people on here are also members of multiple sites.

It has to do with the addition of both items ,1) the ad on the side is experimental for the time being, and 2) the "digg it" link was added at the same time as a new feature. Many sites are adding that link so their content can be shared.

[SilvrEclipse]

Ok I got you. The digg it thing is fine, but I vote no for the big add.

Not like my opinion counts but I was just letting you know.

[gthompson97]

I don't get how the "digg it" thing works. You click on it to share the site with someone else? Couldn't you just paste the link? And I don't think AF has any trouble "advertising" itself. Anytime I do any type of automotive search on Google, the first couple links I see are from AF.

I also vote no for the side banner too, in case you want to take a vote. :

for no on the big ad... but if its the add of $$$... put more adds, and pay me

[Micjohvan]

I see it as well and I dont like it. They can add the ad, but put it somewhere else more discret please. I like Balance in things and this makes me feel nausius (bad spelling at 6:30am on Friday night >_>)
