New advertising border

[itiejim]

I've fired PH up today after my summer holiday and found a new, 75% version, surrounded by advertising. I understand that PH needs to make a profit, but this level of advertising on the home page is really oppressive and makes me less likely to use the site.

I do hope that something can be done to reduce this!

Wow, that's a fking mess.

I've since had another look and I just got the big header, which you can close. The really awful one was for Sky TV. Really, enough to make me look elsewhere.

Adblock!

Currently Adblock screws up the mobile beta skin. The original mobile site no longer works. If I was cynical...

It's shame it looks like I'm going to have to install AdBlock just to use PH... I don't mind putting up with non-obtrusive adverts and so have never really bothered with an ad blocker.

This is taking the piss a bit though! Aside from being absolutely huge, that particular add seems to bog down the whole page.

Yep, that's the one I was referring to - totally offensive and overpowering.

It makes me both less likely to use PH and buy the featured product.
