OK, I understand that advertising helps support this forum, but do they have to be so big in the middle of the topics?

Also, they (apparently) are not loading, leading to huge gaps in the list, making it a PITA to read (see attached).

Are they getting worse lately? It seems to me that they are.

I'm wondering if Marty didn't accidently change something when he was testing things early in the week. I posted this in the OB supporter forum a few days ago, because supporters are not supposed to get any of these ads at all.

Me too they annoy the heck out of me, they take up most of the screen!

I had the adverts appear a few days ago too.. So I "supported" but the adverts have not dissappeared yet.... agree it's very annoying!

Not only that but some of those google ads have spyware embedded in them making it impossible for me to even load this site from work.

Totally agree, just didn't get to it to fix it yet. This hapened after an upgrade of one of the modules. It's on my todo list.
