Pardon the mess, but I'm trying to add some Google ads to the site in the most unobtrusive way i can. The first ads are in Spanish, which I think is hilarious. I think it's keying off the "Dios", Spanish for "god" in the name of the site. :)

It is not annoying but it makes the page strech for me so I have to scroll to the right. Anything I can do about it?

I just widened all the pages about 100 pixels to not squish the ad up next to the logo. What resolution are you using?

I actually didn't notice them until you pointed it out now :)

If you need dinero to keep this site going I'm sure some of the people here would be willing to chip in a few bucks via paypal (I would at least :) )

Thanks! I might take you up on that.

While you're at it, you want to make a COLLECTIONS BUTTON/TAB up top???


I don't care for the WIDE LOAD style of the site either.


I still think you should talk to BriansToys, BBTS, SmallJoes, etc about getting them to help sponsor the site!

One thing at a time, Sonn!

100 pixels made that much of a difference? Are you guys on 800x600?

I'm ok with the ads but don't like the extra wide look on the screen.
Resolute: 1280 x 800

I also join the paypal iniciative.

Ok, so you're not getting a sideways scrollbar, it's the look you don't like? I think I can fix that.

NOBODY Likes to scroll sideways!

1280x1024 resolution for me!

Yeah, I'm at 1280 x 800 myself (and smaller and I can't read the screen) and the width is still larger than my screen can handle!

dang. I did something wrong that makes IE go super-wide. Looks fine in FireFox. I'll track it down.

Still too wide.....

Working on it. :)

bah. Can't figure out how to fix it in IE right now. i'll show a friend and try again later. Still have ads at the bottom for now.

Older look is great.

Thanks. I didn't mean for it to get that wide. I'll keep the width and get the ad in there later.

In the meantime, one of you must have clicked an ad. I made 3 cents! :)

If you wanted to double the ads on the bottom, that'd be cool too. So, should we ALL just press on the ads for the fun of it?

Sometimes a little changes are necessary.
