Rob, i completely support your decision to put ads on Mac OS X Hints, and i look forward to the new things hinted at. While it has been nice to have MOSXH be ad free for the past 4 years, i have come to terms with the fact that advertisements are a fact of life on the web.
If there is one thing i could ask, it's that you please only use static images, animated ads are annoying, distracting, and detracting from the overall experience of a web site. (Ads with audio are even worse, i delete bookmarks that provide me ads with audio, and i won't hesitate to delete MOSXH. You have been warned.) I recently signed up with the LinkShare Network, (yes, thats a referral link) for my own site, ForgottenNebewbies.com as well as google ads, and both allow me to specify that i want my ads to be static, or even text only. Good luck, and once again, i do support your decision - to an extent. ---

As much as I'd love to promise that you won't see blinking ads; it's basically a fact of life in most internet ads nowadays. However, if anyone sees a particularly bad ad, just let me know, and I'll see if I can get it removed (even if it costs me some money) -- more than likely, I can.

I highly recommend Google ads. I have some one my page Restiffbard and they are, to me, unobtrusive and very specific to me and my site. Also, it's Google and I'm a Google Whore. :) Regarding your pending application, by the time you read this it will probably already be approved. They said it would take me 2 days to hear back from them. It took a few hours. Obviously I don't mind the ads. So long as they are kept above or to the side of the content. Mingling ads with tips would just make it garish.

CHANGE IS GOOD! MOSXhints is too of a resource to be left in other hands. If adding adverts will move MOSXHints to the next level, MORE POWER TO YOU!

Hey Rob, I understand that you have a life, too. Everyone does. Just ask me. I'm in school! So, yeah, I'll live with the ads. Just because of them does not mean that things can't stay the same.

Lol, had you not said anything I wouldn't have noticed. But then I added the major ad serving sites to my FireFox blocking file awhile ago. Not because I dislike web-ads in principle, just that I got tired of the flash-based banners and iframe-based redirects and popups/unders and such that a lot of unscrupulous advertisers employ. |
