Let's see if ANYONE follows me! But whether or not they do, I will stick to that one thread.
Soooo you have spruiked us to death these last few years and now you've built up your audience quite nicely you are going to go all quiet and challenge the rest to do the same...? ha!
"I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries" As I own the world's smallest vintage movie poster auction site (
which is here and this link is NOT a spruik just a reinforcement of the point I am making) and because it is also the hardest working, smallest vintage movie poster auction site, with the smallest turnover, the smallest number of movie posters auctioned AND the smallest number of staff (in the world!) - as
you can see here (again NOT a spruik) then I feel the adverts should be self governed (unless you are selling Mexican LCs and don't care what other people think) then most people will try to be reasonable with the number of adverts they post. Failing that, a quiet word in their shell like would surely bring them into line?
That said I do feel that there should be a size restriction on the size of the banners and advertising people are using as part of their sigs, in recent times they have been a little on big side. Personally banners no bigger than 150px (H) x 900px (W) would do the job just fine. So despite the fact that not all banner ads are bad specially if they are educational and informative like this next banner which due to the size of
them it would be a FAIL (as I am sure you all agree) and would be asked to be removed...wouldn't you all want it removed?
Now I am just using the above to make a point, it is NOT an advert for that website (wherever it links to when you click it AND I was NOT I encouraging you to click on
her it because again, it was simply helping to reinforce my point, which was....ummmmmmmmm, ok ok...all of you have stopped reading what I am saying right?
Guys...down here...
That said the following IS an advert...dammit! It shouldn't be allowed...should it?Despite the fact I have no idea what it was I believe
she I have made my point, I hope you were all paying attention...there will be a test at the end of day before you go home.
