The Farting Banner Blows !! - GoFuckYourself.com

Smokey The Bear · 01-02-2004, 06:30 PM

I would just like to say that i think the gfy flash banners with ONLOAD sounds really suck ass.

I dont mind mouseover sounds on flash banners , but that fart banner that re-farts every 8 seconds is annoying as hell.

It wouldnt be so bad if they had the sound in a frame that was only played once , but it plays it over and over again.

Im wondering if i can rent some ad space from gfy, because i would like to rent the ad space and not promote anything, just an ad that says SMOKEY THE BEAR KICKS ASS over and over again at 100 decibals.

I like listening to music while i surf gfy. And it mixes the farting into the music.

Plus you know if one guy has it next week they will be having full talking banners in here .

Plus if i turn off the sound then it makes the legit banners that use mouseover instead of load sounds turn off as well.

Conclusion: not a very good solution

Our designer is fixing it right as we speak. We thought it had been fixed... sorry ;)

No problem.

It really messes with the classical music i was listening too

Kimmykim · 01-02-2004, 06:57 PM

I just love that Turd!!!!!

SoundMan · 01-02-2004, 06:58 PM

Just a thought? why even use that fart sound?

Well smokey did have a valid point on it being to loud!

tell your guy RRed to reduce it by 10 db or so..

budz · 01-02-2004, 07:20 PM

ROFL@!#@ my g/f was on the phone..

I just moused over that banner on accident.

Her mom thought I shit myself.

NoCarrier · 01-02-2004, 07:29 PM

Use a popup remover software where you can also turn off flash animations.

That's what I do.

I see "[flash]" instead

nofx · 01-02-2004, 07:31 PM

yea quite annoying when i'm listening to music and surfing gfy

Smokey The Bear · 01-02-2004, 07:31 PM

Now if they were clever they could do one that was cool.

Like on mouseOUT of the banner it could play a loop that waits for like a full minute or 2 of blank space and then plays a really loud announcement

axelcat · 01-02-2004, 07:32 PM

Its actually a great banner

I like the flash i just dont like having it played on load. Flash Sounds should be played only when your mouse is over the banner , and stop as soon as your mouse has left the banner.

Its boring and not clever in any way. Its your basic fart humour. Doesnt really say much about the company at all. I suppose it gets some attention , but when im looking for a new sponsor , thats not what im looking for.

But i wasnt commenting on the banner , just the fact it plays the sounds over and over in a loop and loud onload

aaron · 01-02-2004, 07:40 PM

ive yet to see an ad the utilizes sound in a good way, they are all annoying as fuck.

Living For Today · 01-02-2004, 07:44 PM

yeah it was very annoying. mixes in with the music very annoying!

Shok · 01-02-2004, 08:26 PM

Yes godamnit its fucking annoying....godamn that boobiebucks...godamn you all to hell!!

Kelsti · 01-02-2004, 08:41 PM

Damn you are a whiney bitch. You have posted in 2 threads now about this banner. I actually think it's pretty damn funny. If you don't like it, reload the page.

Yeah, it's almost as bad as cocksmokers that force their sig on people.

baddog · 01-02-2004, 09:12 PM

I don't think I have ever agreed with Smokey before, so I guess it is true when they say there is a first time for everything

nathan_f · 01-02-2004, 09:34 PM

It's still doing it....

Arty · 01-03-2004, 05:56 AM

Yes, do not use sounds on banners please

At least it should be mouse over only... I had to decide that few times and in all cases we've agreed with my clients to not to use sounds... At the end, two of the current banners at GFY are sound free and they are not loosing any attention becuase of that..

Mr. Mojo Risin · 01-03-2004, 08:41 AM

it's pretty annoying... get's your attention though.. I guess that's the point

loverboy · 01-03-2004, 09:09 AM

i agree, its really annoying and not sound to catch anyones
attention. the sooner the problem is fixed, the better audience
you will get. speed it up

nathan_f · 01-03-2004, 09:21 AM

My first reaction is: "where the fuck is that comming from, and how do I stop it" not, "gee, that is an great fartning noise..must click..."

Has it done well for you? I suppose the attention about it may make people click it.

TDF · 01-03-2004, 09:22 AM

I could fix that in about 5 minutes just send over the flash file.

That banner is annoying. I am jamming out to some music and the next thing I know ytcracker is droping ass during the middle of his tracks.

Sure did, but the last thing I wanted was to click it.

So their strategy miserably failed.

Designers still stuck in the Anal phase should not design, period.

Child Development: The Anal Phase
The anal stage of motivational development is characterized by the child's central area of bodily concern is the rectum. Bowel movements become a source of pleasure to the child. He may defecate often to achieve this pleasure. This, however, would bring him into conflict with his parents. The conflict leads the child to develop an ego. He comes to realize tht he cannot always do what he wants when he wants. He learns that there are certain times when it it appropriate to expel waste nd other times when it is inappropriate. He gradually comes to understand his mother's wishes and abides by them.

Exactly , and besides that point. The banner doesnt tell me anything about the company at all. Doesnt interest me in the least. It does make me refresh the page instantly though

AdultNex · 01-03-2004, 07:01 PM

How many people actually clicked that banner?

I didn't.
