So what? It's still keeping track of our surfing habits.
Is it better now?Quote:

You can stamp that ad right over my avatar. I kept it clean and white for something. Now I know what.
You've made me intrigued as to whether or not vBulletin sanitized their avatar uploads and disallowed uploading or linking a PHP or Python script that would randomly select an avatar from a list of them.Quote:

The ads are 728 x 90, you can see that in the code. They aren't bigger than 800 pixels wide. :confused:
Would you wear an ad on your clothing if the advertiser paid you? What about a sticker on your forehead? A tatoo? Is there a pay threshold for all these?
Would you wear a live monitor on your shirt displaying your forum posts? :weird:
People wear ads on their clothing all the time - and they usually even pay the advertiser for the privilege. That cute little Abercrombie logo on your sweats is advertising. Same with the logo for whatever sports team you like. And then we move on to the people who wear Coke and Marlboro tees.Quote:

If your daughter isn't past that level in her reading and hasn't already they are pretty entertaining.
Indeed, so it's not really a worthwhile comparison, is it? :oQuote:

She may be. What age level? My daughter's ten and she's reading some pretty sophisticated stuff for a ten year old.Quote:

The grade levels are all over the place.
Like I said, it would depend on her. They'd be fairly light reading for her, but my guess is she'd find them entertaining.
Does that site rate each book individually for grade level?Quote:

The ad is bigger than the margin that is supposed to contain it. (the right margin, which ends at the last page number)Quote:

Post a picture so we can see, that'll help us solve the problem.Quote:

But I'm not sure there's anything that can be done -- the ad units are a standard size used across Web sites all over the Internet. Unlike the page elements here, they aren't really dynamic. But on the plus side we haven't set the minimum page width to be less than 720 pixels, so the content of the page will always look right (just not the ads).
May I ask why you have a monitor so small? :confused:
What are the odds that anyone's ever had lips tatooed on their asshole?
1) Huh? The site is full-screen... the width of that image is 800 pixels.
2) I already told you that my resolution is 800x600. It's for my eyes... That doesn't say anything about the size of my monitor.
3) If you actually center the ad by offsetting by the left margin of the parent somehow, it will look better.
4) Actually, what ads? Hmm, don't see any ads anymore... I must be going blind *cough* thanks Firefox *cough*.
