Some Other ads are too big
 
I know, bitch bitch bitch.

I noticed that the ad on the right is sometimes oversized, off the side of my 800 x 600 screen.

Is this another "didn't know about that" like the flashing green VW ad?

[Going back to Otter, now. Sorry for the interruption...]

Venusian 01-08-02 11:22 PM

i noticed it too, figured it was intentional since Other eats all the bandwidth

This ad?

Yeah, it is a bit too big. But, I'm not gonna complain. At least it's not as bad as those flashing banner ads.

Wizdar 01-09-02 08:20 AM

WhoGirl, different ad, same size.

Not really complaining, it just seems out of the ordinary. I usually see the scroll bar on the bottom only when somebody posts a large pic, and I thought it was kinda strange to see it on the thread list page.

I totally understand why Otters are being <s>abused</s> <s>picked on</s> <s>subjected to</s> allowed exclusive rights to these extra special offers. But, like the audience for whom they are intended, sometimes you gotta keep an eye on them. ;)

Well, if Geoff gets paid more money for the big ad then I am all for it. If not...well... :)

As with everything we're 'testing' out some of those bigger ad sizes. Since Other consumes a HUGE amount of bandwith and we need to do everything we can to get it to fund itself.

no complaints here.. whatever it takes to keep other up

if you want to run a marquee right through the middle of the page that says "EAT AT JOES".. we will all understand :D

I'm not complaining, here's another big one though.

Venusian 01-09-02 11:45 PM

how bout you make the ads bigger then the Other Forum gettogethers can have corporate sponsorship?

GeoffK 01-15-02 03:08 AM

We are going to be testing a new size:

What do you think ;)

Wizdar 01-15-02 07:38 AM

Well...

...since you're ONLY doing it in Otter... -eek-

:lol:

mllefoo 01-27-02 11:54 PM

I dunno, Geoff. That one is really hard to see from across the room. Can you enlarge it a bit? ;)
