I know, I looked for 'Kettle' :(

Have you seen the 'throw your friend a life-ring' one as well? I wonder if the banners are context sensitive per site? ;)

For the flash banner how about a series of ships and effects in the corner as they were in the original FS2 and then as they are in their full SCP glory.

OTOH since we spent 99.99% of our time at any other point on a page than the top, you prolly will hardly ever see it even if you do not make it 0x0 in size (thru html, not physically resizing the img)...


We've already considered it, and honestly - we would be jeopardising our relationship with GS for no gain. Really. GS has the right to demand a lot more than they are presently - I'd be thankful, guys. :)

indeed.

personally, i don't see what the freaking problem is.. i mean sure they can be annoying, but the thing here is to ignore them.

i mean, bloody hell, we've gone without ads for a little over 3 years now, and said ads have been /stock/ standard on every other forum on the GS network..
and when some miniscule ads crop up in the forums themselves, you whinge about it. i mean, the foxfire website has banner ads in it, it's part of the agreement i have with keenspace for their free hosting. and i don't complain about it.
Hardly anything comes free, people.. live with it.

Hey, that Freevibe ad is a fix! It asked me if I would save my friend, and I clicked 'No' and it STILL took me to their bloody website :(

I don't mind them, if they don't **** up the forum formatting... I don't mind them on VW, since it fits in the top of the page, but when its making everything too big to read, thats when i have  problem...

have the lucifer chargeing up it's cannons,

also have one were an old stock fs(2) ship flys by and is transformed from old stock effects to FSO quality, includeing maybe the experimental environment mapping and decals

actualy I got it, have like a pers flying by, with "remember this?" then have it fly into a blinding sun glow, and come out the other side all shiney and glowy and stuf, then have "see freespace in a whole new light. \n freespace open \n Hard Light Productions"

actualy maybe a Basilisk, Mantacore, or Nephelem would be better

oh, wait a sec, you didn't make those

We've submitted one basic banner to GS, but their submission system seems to be having some issues. :nervous:

I like Bobb's idea, but IMHO it should be done with the Hercules or Fenris, so the hi-poly models can be used. :D
