Google Ads

Does that bring in much cash then? do you get something when an ad is clicked? The side bar on the front page is neat but dont like the one in the header :(

One other thing has the border of the new topic window always been so black :-?

It's too soon to say if they are going to be worthwhile. Some ads are per impression, some are per click.

I'll see if I can make the header ads look a bit better.

i dont even think there that intrusive on the forum, the ones at the top look neat now and the ones at the bottom dont even bother me. Also dont think anyone who uses this forum could complain as without Ade we wouldnt have it.

i like those google ads because if they're in the right place you barely notice them.
