I'm sure we've all noticed the google ads on the side of the page. What I was thinking, was maybe CA3LE could add a donate option which would give you access to testmy.net with no adds, or some other kind of benefits. Regardless it would be nice to donate once in awhile to testmy.net to help with any server costs because it's such a great site  Very Happy.

the google ads don't realy bother me. but that could be a good idea to offer something extra for people that have donated.

Great idea, I will work on that when I get home... I try to envision the future of the site when writing any code for the site.. so I have already written ad removal into the new site design so it will be very easy to implement something like that.

The google ads go very well with the site theme overall.  Almost from the start of the site I have used google and the campain here at testmy.net has from the start had great success... even if I was approached by an ad company that used mainly image ads and they promised me more revenue I would have to decline.  Because I know that our users appreciate the fact that testmy.net has always used less invasive (and less annoying) methods of finacing the project.  Contextual ads are awesome and not so 'in-your-face' --- god, I really hate those new flash ads that have audio.  But, you never know one day, maybe in the near future, contextual ads may go the way of the dodobird... people may become too desensitized to them... who knows the future of advertising?  Well, if any of us knew the future of advertising we would be very rich indeed.

with blocked ads (blocked on my end) it would also remove the white space to the left... and fill with text, easier on the eyes.  here is an example >> http://www.testmy.net/?noads=1 -- compare to http://www.testmy.net/
