Title: [Rant] The google ads
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 25, 2005, 01:41:00 am

Anybody noticed that the titles in google ads on the websites are now in black text? This really piss me off because this make my website look weird and I know its not me because it does the same thing on the test forums and I didnt changed any code on them  <_<

This is one of the reasons I chose phpBB over any other board, the only ads on it are the ones you put on it.

yeah, actually forumer.com also have ads now. those ads arent bad but you dont get the money. the thing I like about IF and forumers is that its easy to install and you dont need to find a host and have server knowledge to have them

Y'know why? You need at least 100 bucks to get money AT ALL, and after 1 month you get almost nothing anymore for your clicks. So i;m stuck at like 13 bucks... Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 26, 2005, 02:14:00 am yeah, even if I had my own ads here I doubt i would get much money for them, it works more on high traffic websites like invisionfree forums which has always over 100 users online at once. I only have a bit over 70000 hits since may 12th (altough this doesnt count people viewing board index and topic lists) only websites like ticalc.org would get a decent amount of money regulary with ads. I like google ads though because content is related to the website content most of the time and they match the design (except the new black text) Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: arti on October 28, 2005, 09:44:00 am QuoteBegin-MathStuf+25 October 2005, 21:18--> QUOTE (MathStuf @ 25 October 2005, 21:18) This is one of the reasons I chose phpBB over any other board, the only ads on it are the ones you put on it.    The ads don't come with IPB They are put in by the host. IPB standalone has no ads  :) Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: dysfunction on October 28, 2005, 12:24:00 pm For some reason I don't see the ads anymore at all...

I think they moved to the bottom of the webpage. Edit: Oh... wait... now they moved back to the top. I'm getting dizzy. :wacko: I'll be quiet now :x Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: dysfunction on October 28, 2005, 02:40:00 pm Huh now I see it, at the bottom this time- I swear they weren't there at all the last time though. Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: tifreak on October 29, 2005, 08:03:00 am The homepage has it on the top, and the other pages have it on the bottom. I have always seen it like that... B) Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 29, 2005, 09:06:00 am maybe google went down for a couple of minutes (yes because google go down sometimes as well, even if ppl claim it never did since it was founded), but in IF the google ads are at the bottom when viewing a topic Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: koolmansam375 on October 29, 2005, 10:13:00 am I *think* you could export a database of this forum and install it on your uti subdomain then import the db to there. i know where to find a copy of IPB 1.3.1 Final and you can get rid of the silly google ads :D Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on October 29, 2005, 12:54:00 pm actually we need to pay if we want to get a  IPB conversion of an IF forum, later i'll see if I will do it but the problem is that if the forums grow even bigger in a few years I'll eventually max out my 100 MB diskspace limit (i use half of it right now) so I'll have to find another host once :P welcome here btw :) Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: alex10819 on November 10, 2005, 05:51:00 am exporting a db... not fun... but personally, if you're gonna export the db, you'd be better off adapting it to phpBB... Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 10, 2005, 06:11:00 am I'mnot a big fan of PHPBB though, I kinda like how you can edit the CSS online and click a submit button and its done on IF. I am wondering if IPB has this feature though Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: alex10819 on November 10, 2005, 10:27:00 am actually, you can edit the CSS for a phpBB... it just takes a little bit of Cpanel know-how... (just edit the .css file)... of course, if you wanted features like that, they could be modded in easily... a bit of PHP... Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: rivereye on November 10, 2005, 11:05:00 am yeah, I like phpbb better, but that is me Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: tifreak on November 10, 2005, 11:31:00 am bah, I am just gettin used to the IF stuff. And besides, at the rate the forums are growin, it will be a long time before they run out of memory... :D Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 11, 2005, 04:01:00 am well since you alerady have 1k post it would be dumb to scrap the board and going back to phpbb, losing all your posts :/ Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: tifreak on November 11, 2005, 10:19:00 am I didn't say I was gonna do that. I just said that it will take forever to reach the memory limit on my forums, since hardly anyone visits it. I think there are now 5 or 6 people that visit it daily, but rarely post... I know you post when you have something relevant to say Kevin... :D Did you see my post on the New Projects topic, on my forum? :P Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: rivereye on November 11, 2005, 01:00:00 pm I post when relevant  also, or when I make an update Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 12, 2005, 03:40:00 am QuoteBegin-tifreak8x+11 November 2005, 16:19--> QUOTE (tifreak8x @ 11 November 2005, 16:19) I know you post when you have something relevant to say Kevin... :D  yeah, I always post http://www.revsoft.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=2690#2690 %) . Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: rivereye on November 12, 2005, 05:02:00 am hey Kevin I am testing out an IPB forum on my site, if you want to try some things with it, I can send you the info to get there so you can play around with it Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: DJ Omnimaga on November 12, 2005, 05:28:00 am cool, are you thinking about switching to IPB? If it allow skin chaging like Invisionfree (which is a modified IPB 1.3) I might be able to make a skin, also I like how you can custom the header in ipb so I could put your rivereye logo at the top like with tifreakware forums (he even has the navbar) :) EDIT your sig is old it sdtill point to your phpnuke website :P Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: rivereye on November 12, 2005, 07:11:00 am thank you, I will pm you the area to IPB. I am debatting about IPB vs phpbb, the thing is that phpbb has right now is everything is set up there. I will change the sig in a second also, thanks for the heads up Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: necro on December 12, 2005, 05:25:00 pm wouldn't it be nice to make your own javascript/xml forum system... do all of the browsers support xml out of the box? Title: [Rant] The google ads Post by: tenniskid493 on December 17, 2005, 05:15:00 pm What was up w/ the ads yesterday???  It was one huge graphical ad instead of the normal ads.
