Banner Ad Bonanza!

Wow, with so many banner adds now, I was wondering... it looks like you have room to make them " side by side" on the page so you don't have to scroll as far down? ( At least until you sell a few more! Very Happy

)

Or is it set to start a second page one of these days?

They would still change randomly of course.

why is it that when i click on a banner ad, it opens up in this window instead of a new window like all the links in the forums?

It's confusing to have them side by side.

That is how most of the banners work. The Forums are set to open links in a new window so that you can view related content while reading a thread.

The banners are 468 pixels wide.

468 x 2 = 936 pixels

I try to design the site for 800 pixels wide, even though a lot of people have 1024x768 or higher resolution.

Happy now ?!?!?

Absolutely... I did not consider the technical ramifications of the layout.

I just thought it would be nice if it was possible.

thanks for the clarification.

I would do it if the banners were a bit smaller... maybe.

It looks really busy with them side by side and I'm sure the advertisers would prefer their own "line".
