I don't like the size of it.
Another forum, citydata, has them but they're much smaller and don't use logos, just a brief line and a Website address. Those aren't as intrusive.

I'd also probably like all of the advertisements on the left side of the screen. While it's not a HUGE deal, it's annoying that the first thing I read while entering every thread is "1 Tip of a Flat Belly".

It'd be nice if maybe the ads were a page break. Maybe if they were just a line of small Google ads that went horizontal rather than the ads being an actual intrusive post.

ETA: Kind of like this:

If you're using Fire Fox you have plenty of "options" for making this happen.

Gotta hate when you lose your box. I'm sorry, my mind is in the sub-gutter today.

You only need the "Fire" link for this site, not the "Fox" link. FYI, it makes Facebook ads disappear too. Amazing!

I like the advertisements on the top or bottom, so I don't have to see them on the screen all the time...but I do NOT appreciate quick flashing advertisements.

The first GC ad in a thread I read was actually for Border's advertising the Twilight series in the New Moon thread. I was thinking that was appropriate advertising, but now I just scroll past them and don't read them.

The 2nd link is very much geared toward the "Power User" but the first should be very basic and easy to use . . . coincidentally, it'll make browsing much safer too.

I have no idea what happened to lovespink, small chance of spyware re-direct issues though.
