Would you guys all leave Obner if I put a side- or top-bar of google ads, to make a contribution to the maintenance (and upgrade!) of the servers on which we're hosted?

This would be fine. Google ads are very friendly.

do you think a top or side bar would be less conspicuous (I'm sure I can change it too)?

What are the chances that a side bar could help deter the not-so-frequent-yet-not-always-intentionally-annoying post that is too wide, causing the need to sidescroll?

hows about at the top of the page just to the right of the "obner" logo?

We seem to have some vacant real estate there.

0 %

Yail: that's a good idea, although i think that the bar would be taller than the logo, but with the right about of adjusting it might work ok

According to Google, the ads will be targetted toward your needs as represented by obner's content, so things like cockmongering, hangovers, and the like.

Thats fine by me, and if you set up a Paypal thing to donate some money to you for the server space, I'll definitely do that as well.

As long as whatever pops up is work friendly, I've got no problems with it.

Once I wrote an e-mail to Haq explaining why I hate using umbrellas.

Ever since Google has been trying to sell me umbrellas.

The great part about it is, I don't pay for it. So I'm just setting up AdSense to pay our hosts so we don't have to.

Sounds great to me as well - I have some friends who added Google to some of their sites that they really didn't think were that popular and they've been getting checks from Google for it :)

Top bar would be less distracting. I'll just ignore them like I do the stickies.
