@catohagen,

While true, I would like you to understand the consequences of such a recommendation.  Amiga.org exists ONLY by the contributions we receive, along with the advertising revenue which pays for the servers we need to run this site.

By promoting the use of proxies to bypass our advertisements, you make it very difficult for us to succeed.  If you don't like Genesi or Elbox, or ForeMatt, or whoever, simply ignore the banner.  It's that simple, but don't go about telling people to disable the display of the advertisements.

@catohagen

Why?

I'm not a huge Genesi fan, but I'm perfectly capable of ignoring an advert.  It's not somehow doing any harm just by sitting in the corner there - "removing" it yourself won't suddenly cause Genesi any harm :-)

Anyway, nice to see a few more ads round here.

>By promoting the use of proxies to bypass our advertisements

Do you get paid per user loading a.org, or
per click on the banner ? or a paid monthly fee ?

Im sorry....but I dont see the harm of just
dont load that image :-)

What about people who turn imageloading off ?

I usally surf with images off...

Ah man!  Seeing Elbox ads just make me wish I had won the lottery!  I sorely want a Mediator and one of thier snazzy tower cases for my A3k.

Nothing wrong with ad blocking software (if set up correctly the net becomes once again a nice place   :-) )

Set it up to also remove the following "modules/myalbum/photo.php?lid=" and bye bye Image-o-matic and donations and this sites main page looks a lot better.

@Paul_Gadd

Why do you recommend getting rid of the donations bit. I know each to their own and all that, but i think thats just an insult, sorry.
