It's the last posting in each thread. How's that obtrusive?
Plus they look quite smart... |

I found it intrusive when it was the second post on each page, but now it's the last one I don't even notice it. Which means it isn't achieving its aim any more, so it'll probably be moved back again.
And I'm pleased to see it isn't included in the count of posts any more. _________________ Anita

It's a waste of space, the sooner it's done away with the better, at least I get an empty message with FireFox _________________ Graham.

And you'll see that we too disliked it! We've now reverted to the former advert style. _________________ Darren Griffin |
