I don't know how much the adverts bug regular members here. If there is enough interest, I'll develop an ad-free skin.
I'd probably have to set some sort of qualifying criterium, like participation or something. But before I explore it in depth, could I have some idea of the interest level.

Dave the Ads don't bug me at all and maybe I need a volvo at prime -5%. So if it helps with the costs leave them.
Only stress when you can change the outcome!
I don't mind the ads either. It would be nice if more people registered though. There's always loads more guests than authenticated users.
I have switched to the "Lite" version of the theme, and I've seen a remarkable speed increase browsing the site. Well done Dave!
Thanks for the feedback so far. For those who haven't commented yet, keep them coming. This is one of those times where feedback really helps.
Amazing, isn't it. And I've still got 7 hits left to clean out too. But that involves a bit of graphics work which I'll have to get to later.Originally Posted by kernel32

Also don't mind the ads. To be honest, I rarely even notice them, not to mention reading them.
I'm much more interested in the content of the posts from the great pools of knowledge and experience of the users.
Watching the ships passing by.
Don't really notice them so I wouldn't worry about spending time on new skin.
Lets rather spend the time talking about more important stuff like world domination.
Nope, don't mind either, especially if it helps keeping the forum around.

Agreed - Leave the ads. As long as there aren't ads that look like posts, like after the 3rd post, like I've seen on other forums, I'm happy

Not going to happen here, that's for sure. Not even for guests only. That particular ad location is in the middle of content and irritates me too.As long as there aren't ads that look like posts, like after the 3rd post, like I've seen on other forums, I'm happy
