It doesnt get in the way and it makes the site money so it can keep running...get over it. Its no different from a tv show, or magazine, or movie. Ads keep things going.

Dude it used to be so much worse, don't worry about it.

Besides, at least it looks good, and it's not pop-ups.

I wouldn't mind having a little "x" in the top corner of the ad that closes it though, like youtube on there videos, it'd be nice. I don't mind the banner ad cause they are visible yet subtle but the front page ads are to in your face, which honestly doesn't make me want to buy/use the product, it's just stifling. if there is another way to implement ads to cover costs and salaries, could the staff look into it? Just asking

god help us all, I compared Newgrounds to Youtube... that makes my heart sink

Those who come here with hate (and if your a douchebag) leave now, for hatred will only betray you.

That pissed me off a little seeing those ads slapped on the sides when I logged in. But I guess what ever you 'have' to do.

I saw those ads and KNEW someone was going to bitch about it on the BBS. Hilarious.

Come on, its not that bad. At least it was nicely incorporated into the site, and didn't take away from it.

Don't pray for easy lives. Pray to be stronger men.

I wish Neqgrounds had ads coming out of every square inch of the site, knowing Tom's making that green makes me feel good in my heart.
Even if it does mean my internet browser is slow as shit.

The best thing about this, besides the admins trolling, is that before I saw this thread I was on the front page and I somehow missed that HUEG ad. Sorry guys I guess you didnt make it big enough.
