there is one advertisement banner in that shot, at the very top of the screen. The Poser Forum banner is a visual set of links. There's also the Renderosity banner, which conveys the identity of the site in one image, which is a requirement for any established company. If yer gonna complain about advertising, try running a site as large as this without trying to bring a little bit of revenue from advertisements, and without any visual representation of the site itself. Most sites on the net have banner ads on top, and square ads scrolling all the way down the sides of their pages, along with a pop-p or two for good measure, just to piss you off, nevermind the retarded animating logos placed all over the place. If I remember correctly, the banner ads at top can only be something like 15kb large or something, though i could be wrong, so that doesn't exactly take long to download, even on dial up (if yer still on a 28.8 modem, its time for an upgrade). The best solution would be to find a site just like renderosity, without any banners or ads, just etxt. If you find one as filled with useful content as Rosity, let us all know so we can all leave for good.
