Bloody adverts!

Anyone been to http://www.football365.co.uk lately?

Flash adverts, or whatever the hell they're created in.

Yes, I've whinged abuot them before. But it was bad enough when they just popped up in the middle of the screen; these new ones take up nearly a quarter of the browser window with a 'page turn' effect. They're bigger and more instrusive than ever!

I know these sites need the financial support of advertising, but there's surely no quicker way to p!ss off your readers than obstructing the articles they're trying to read?!

Nasty things... should be banned.

I didn't get the Flash ad that time, but I got a pop-up. The worst is the NME.com site, which is so "underground" and "alternative" that they've got adverts for McDonalds.

Over the years I've become very jaded after many bad experiences with customer services, you have bucked the trend. Polite and efficient from the Freeola team, well done to all involved.
LOVE it....
You have made it so easy to build & host a website!!!
