Anybody else a little annoyed by the new advertisement

Post by jckinnick » Fri May 23, 2008 5:17 pm

That huge new invisible advertisement at the top of the message board is getting on my nerves. I have to scroll down a half a page to see the board. Is there anyway to make it smaller and visible so I dont accidentally click on it?

yeah, I've got no idea. If anything, the BSW banner looks smaller today.

I have the invisible part, but because of that I don't know if its huge or not.

How then do you know it's an advertisement? Perhaps it's just a spacer graphic your browser is failing to size properly.

I'm sure there's joke here involving Bilbo Baggins, the ring, and a she-hobbit.

Post a screenshot if you are really bored.

I agree with the others about the 'invisible' part.
