Just noticing the ads running at the top of Sheffield Forum.
The one by Creative Aspex, is it me or does that eye on the right hand side of the banner look totally evil?

It's watching us, I can feel it :o

I agree with DB. It has quite a scowl...it looks even worse than that nasty paperclip in Microsoft Office.

Why don't I see ads any more. I used to but for some reason I don't anymore. I haven't changed any settings or anything.

Are you running a firewall? Some of these allow you to turn adverts off... which is great for you but bad for the future of small, independent web sites :cry:

I have a firewall Geoff ,always have. I haven't altered anything because I'm not that clever?

Has anyone noticed that the ad for trophies and promotional items can't spell "promotional"!

Spelling it "promtional" may save money if they charge by the letter, but they aren't engraving my trophy!"

Which company are you talking about Mr. H?! Are we talking about an ad on SF... or one on another site?

Are you talking about a spelling mistake in the banner itself or on the forum it takes you too? That might explain my confusion... lol.
