SIG TOO BIG! Maximum 120x60 button and no more than 3 text lines of DEFAULT SIZE and COLOR. Unless your sig is for a GFY top banner sponsor, then you may use a 624x80 instead of a 120x60.
but since when does my daughter being 30 feet away watching barney and playing with a cat while i catch up on industry gossip on a laptop with the screen faced away from her make me a bad parent?
or did you just become the morality police? or wait... better yet.. let me guess.. you dont have kids right?
all i can tell ya bro. is i turned off my volume. and i turned off sigs.
so count me as just one more webmaster who is irritated enough by the neverending flash banners and the "suck my dick bitch" screaming punk music that i stopped watching ads.
I'd be willing to bet that every advertiser on here would be happy to have me see their sig and send them some traffic... i imagine the same goes for quiet.. and numerous others i have seen.
Alas, the actions of a few have made sure that i'll never see another new product ad. In fact not just sigs.. i actually AVOID even letting my mouse near the main ads because some of them are so fuckin loud and annoying that if i'm listening to music on my computer it blasts over it.
These tactics are lowering the value that advertisers gain from this board.

i'm sure we could come up with plenty of scenarios where the sounds can do wrong even if there arent kids in the room.
telling somebody to turn off their audio if they want to view a board is absurd. kinda the equivalent of telling somebody to turn off hahahahahahahahahaha if they dont like popups.. sure.. turning off js will stop popups... but it also disables so much other functionality.

Period.
If this is some pro-sounds-in-banners post, its bullshit. Period.
My kid doesnt have to be in the same room to hear some bullshit 'fuck yea' banner blurting out my speakers. I play my music kinda loud... so i usually have my volume up. I have logitech z-60 speakers... my whole house can hear what music I play. I like to listen to music while I surf, and I'll be damned if I have to turn my music volume down because of some asshole sound banner.
Unwelcomed sounds are intrusive, period. I only expect to hear sound on my PC when I play music, or watch a movie. I have all other sound events disabled. I hate going to some dopey flash site that has 10 different choices of music playing with 20 different mouseover sounds for every other fucking button. You wanna give me a fucking choice, then give me a choice to turn the music ON, not OFF.
Its one thing to hear it unexpectedly when you purposely mouse over a banner, its another when you ACCIDENTALY mouse over. Sounds in banners are fucking GAY. PERIOD.

Coming Soon! A NEW revolution in black adult social networking!
My post was that any parents on this board should not be surfing this board with kids in the room.
I get where you're coming from...but I have my laptop here in front of my recliner chair in the living room...I don't surf porn or anything like that and it's always easy to just scroll down to the words when my kid is close...I've been surfing this board for years and my kids haven't seen anything....when my kids are in the room, the only thing I CAN do is surf GFY and maybe check some stats...
Now when my kids can read, it might be a different story.....

I hate sounds in banners myself, this was not a prosoundsinbanners thread.

But I hate the sound banners. It's gotten to the point where I'm really considering setting up nutscrape or something just for GFY and leaving the sounds off on it.

This i why i said 'complain about sounds in banners all you want.'
i hate that shit too.
I have music on 24 hours a day, and usually pretty loud. I even sleep with music on.
And at least 10 times a day I fucking get hit with one of those fucking GFY banner sounds, and it really fucking blows.
Not only do they try and pick the dumbest sounds, its usually some amateurish implementation, the sounds are too loud and clearly placed by inexperienced people.
I predicted this with the first banner though. I said it would get worst ;)

I agree.
I'll have to splurge and get a pair of speakers to hear what all this fuss is about with sound on this board.
Originally posted by Honeyslut The whiners should just turn off the speakers like I do..
I surf and work from my room so my girls have to knock before they come in.
Good for you.
The rest of us listen to shit while we're working.
All the sounds on banners do is make me instantly refresh so I get a banner without sound. I can't even tell you what the sponsors are, just the sounds that are made.
<a href="http://www.adultcontent.co.uk">Adult Content UK - Great British Content</a>
I don't surf with my kids in the room.. They have their own playroom, however, if I forget to turn my speakers down or I was doing something that needed sound, THEN the banners are a pain in the ass, they can hear it from their room.
Banners with sounds are an annoying pain in the ass.. Its funny how when there were banners with sounds aimed at surfers it was said it was a crappy idea (by many webmasters)
Then voila! now us webmasters get banners with fucking sound.. Sorry to say but it makes me wanna join the program even less..
Its enough that I see your banner.I never asked to hear sound but I get it anyway?
And did adding sounds to your banners really help you get more webmasters? Not likely.
There are sounds on GFY? I have my laptop muted and I keep my desktop speakers turned off. I learned about 7 years ago that sound and computers don't mix. Who needs it?
Originally posted by Fletch XXX Complain about the sounds in banners all you want, fact is you shouldnt be surfing an adult-related site with your kids in the room.
well, like i said in one of the other sound threads..... read the GFY rules and you will see the BS double standard... it says no sounds in posts is a 'good thing'........ yet apparently sounds in ads isnt a 'bad thing'.
now THAT is bullshit.

Nowadays one can violate every human right possible by using the guise of "terrorism" or its "for the children"
One can use this rhetoric to further any cause.
I myself have kids in the room but they arent reading over my shoulder,
They arent paying any attention to what I am doing.
there really isnt anything too outlandish here.
I always surf with images off anyways pertaining to other adult sites.
I monitor my kids online and make sure they do not go to adult sites as all parents should.
But this is 2 different things entirely,
if they came up behind me I would minimize the page but they dont give a care what Im surfing.
