Default Community Sites section - removed

Hi Everyone,

I just thought I would let everyone know that I have removed the Community Sites section from GigPosters.com. The Ad network that was being used sucked, and I got sick of dealing with them. (plus - they took a large cut, and the 'include' slowed down the site load times)

I'm contemplating replacing them with text ads that I manage myself ... or not have any at all.

Your thoughts?

-Clay

Yeah or maybe a few other smaller banner ad options?

Smaller banner ads sound great.

I would totally be down for like 25 dollar banner ads, you could have 2 or 3 at the bottom, i would think that would bring in more cash flow for you than the text ads.
