    Cool Has anyone else noticed???

    Just wondering, but has anyone else noticed the latest advertising banner on the forum board?

    "Got Vape?"

    While I have absolutely no issues with it, it just seems like an odd thing to be pedaling here on this site.

    I have not seen the ad either, due to AdBlock.

    The adds are usually generated from the cookies stored within our own personal computers. I recently did a closet system upgrade, and now here, as well at several other websites, I see the adds for the same closet system company that I used. If you don't use an adblock, you will see a reflection of what cookies you have stored in your own computer. This represents a more sophisticated, personalized marketing approach, I guess?

    http://adblockplus.org/en/ on sites like this with SO many ads per page, it's a life saver... it actually makes the site load WAY faster. I think it might be because they don't iframe their ads

    I don't see an option for those of us that use Safari on a Mac.
