    Question for all

    There is a new ad format coming to the internet.
    I would like to use it, maybe NOT on Fishin.com but on other sites..
    It is a 5 second audio ad. Some can be political, but most will be for things like Outdoor Websites, Taco Bell etc. I would put it on some pages but not all and they would not play if you had heard an ad in the last 3 minutes..
    Does having an audio ad play in order for the site to make money bother you?

    I keep the sound off on my computer at work anyway (and most of the time at home).

    Also, those ads would probably be blocked by AdBlock Plus or other readily available free programs.

    You can test it at http://www.HuntTheUS.com
    If you have adblock let me know if it works.
    This is not a pop up, it is an audio file like the Commercial we ran for the Strader Expo for a few days on the site back in Feb.

    I am all for it, This has been my most favorite web site, Everyone on here is friendly and always willing to help others out. So if it means i have to hear adds to keep in touch with others that have the same passion as i do then so be it.

    I typically keep the sound turned off so it doesn't make any difference to me what so ever.
