Comments on it's size? Could someone show me a screenshot of it in action? It might take a while to show up. I'll probably end up moving it to the bottom of the forum after a while.

Thanks. That's not too bad I guess. Good enough for temporary anyway.

Ew, ugly burning white all over the top!

Suggestion: Move it to the bottom.

Also ---are you getting any money out of this?

It looks alright on my screen.
I've clicked it, and will keep doing so once a day or so;

Hope it helps, frankly speaking.

Looks fine on my screen (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/115304/screenshots/Headshot-Ad.png). But, all the ads seem to be centered around the Nexus One, which doesn't interest me.  :)

Yes, also, the ads look fine. Obviously they are just a box thrown on the bottom of the page though. But thats okay considering the site doesnt even have a theme yet.

Yea, when SMF 2.0 comes out, I'll mod it up and find a Adsense theme that integrates perfectly. Until then... this is all you're gonna get.

Ads updated with a management module. They should be at the bottom of the page (proper size this time) as well as under child boards. I'm not sure what the latter means. Could someone provide screenshots?

*EDIT*
By the way, just so you guys know I'm not a total jew and I'm not getting rich off of you...

It's just a little method to earn back what I've put into the hosting plan :)

This is the ad under child boards.

I love the new ads. Text ads are so much better than image based ads. And they look great on my screen.  8)

An interesting piece of information:

I'm going to dump Google Adsense as soon as my account reaches $100 so I can cash out what I already have in there. Unfortunately, at the pace it's going, it could be 10 years. If things picked up, I would be able to remove the ads from this site soon. But if I reached that $100 too fast, they might think something is up.

lol how much are you at now?
Title: Re: Advertisement
Post by: Spanky on Sunday, June 20, 2010, 20:54:21 PM
$61.83 currently. $55.51 of that from mAAp Pack. Headshot has earned $5.62. See how pointless it is for small scale websites? That and they REQUIRE you to have $100 to cash out and there's no real support person to talk to to try and get what's in there. I could cancel my account but that would pretty much mean that I could never use AdSense on that e-mail again and well, this is my 2nd AdSense account.

Just leave the account, maybe Dann will put some Miracle Grow on the site.

You could mod the forum so that people would have to click an Ad in order to access the forum and actually post.
