Banners

Post by Lardmaster » Tue Apr 10, 2007 1:51 pm

I think we should change the banners on the site. I rather doubt that wok species will be coming to any jungle soon let alone one near me :)

Just makes the site seem a bit abondoned if you are here randomly and click the link.

Some internal advertising would perhaps work better, an advert for wok IV (or V for that matter) might stand out.

Anyone any thoughts?

When I discovered that a banner was causing the forums to crash, I disabled them all. Then, as this left an annoying rectangle-with-missing-picture-sign at the top of each page, I recativated the banners I knew to be safe.

If anyone wants to put a banner up to keep the site interesting, mail it to me. I might not even charge you! :wink:

A 460 by 68 GIF file will display properly. Don't ask me where those numbers came from, the banners were added in the days of the patented Gassner random number generator...

Of course, the image size is set when the page is loaded, so aim for about 450 X 70 and you should be ok, a little stretching won't show up...

Anything non porno-hatemongering-not suitable for minors can be added, however if anyone plans to make a quick buck from sponsorship, the community would appreciate a donation...

Looks pretty good to me but then I am just a lonely soul wandering the net looking for a game to waste my time on. Sorry I mean to constructively invest my time.
