I'm not sure having adverts above every post is a good idea and will probably be counter productive in the long run as time and time again where websites push too many ads people vote with their feet and browse elsewhere.

I don't understand...I can't see adverts above every post...
I do see the ads by google line above the no. of members browsing this topic.

Peewee try right- clicking on the adds and you should get an option to block them.(I did anyway) You have to do it for all three adds. It worked for me anyway.

just to let everyone know why the increase in advertising:

Hi SS,

Wanted to drop you a quick line about the additional advertising on the site, obviously as I am sure you will realise I am looking at ways to raise a little more money which will help with the running costs of the site.

The site is doing well with a good steady growth in membership and regular users which has always been the aim however this in itself is the reason I need to find ways of funding.

The forums database alone is almost a half a Gigabyte in size and the site statistics for the month of July show that the site had 3251 visits a day totalling 100,811 Visits in the month who viewed 1,297,974 Pages this used 26,852,822 Kbytes of data transfer/bandwidth. It is the size of the site and the bandwidth that are costing a fair amount now each month.

I'm sure the additional advertising will not be very well received however as said there is a need to raise some funds to help with the running costs of the site.

If you or any of the membership can think of other ideas to raise regular ongoing revenue I am very much open to suggestions and would happily reduce/remove the ads if alternatives ideas can be found.

Anyway wanted to keep you up-to-date, let me know if you have any thoughts on this.

Kind Regards,

Chris[/quote]
