I have to say that this recent banner really caught my eye. As a graphics user, I certainly appreciate the quality that went into making such a banner. I also appreciate how Renderosity knows my tastes well enough to know that I would want to see a banner like this. After all, we see plenty of banners for Poser products- give me an interactive pull-down list any day!   By the way, when you pass your mouse over the banner, you don't get the usual "renderosity.com/mod/adman" link (which links to merchants' products). Instead, you get taken to this URL: http://a.tribalfusion.com/h.click/UVJWRKKJSJUUMQGTRXCJKQDQQTMMPPHLFKKLIMOCFGDYPTITRJODRTKGRJOOGKIRCLIQJGHJUKKG/http://www.education-advancement.com/newZipS...   "Tribal Fusion® is the leading site representation company, serving **9 billion monthly impressions** and reaching **110 million users** per month. " (quoted from their website). No wonder they're such a good fit for the Poser community! And I'm sure that the linked URL, "education-advancement.com" is a great place to get all kinds of graphical software tools. Okay, maybe they don't have Poser software, but they must have some cool Photoshop or Lightwave plug-ins. Why else would they advertise on Renderosity? Why else would Renderosity allow a banner like this on their site?   And to think, I could have been served a banner for a product for sale at Renderosity instead. And then I could have purchased that product from Renderosity and used it in a project that I was working on. Thanks for helping me to save money! I vote for more banners that have nothing to do with the content of the site.

Whatever brings in money I guess.   I've seen a few non-poser related ones.  I only click the ones that interest me, and those are 100% of the time Poser ones that catch my eye.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi

I'm guessing it's one of the non-3D-related banners that were found to be linked to the port scans
