Pop up... one word... pop up... a banner would be a bad thing... My daughter
uses a teen chat room... and she does nothing but intercept popups and
advertising... and webspies... and viruses..... Banners are a really bad
idea ... All the money we are putting into the worlds... and you want
banners... another way for sleezy advertising to snake unwanted in. I found
xupiter on both her computer and mine... with lots of adult site stuff...
and we didn't go looking for it either... I was really offended.. but I had
no way to stop it ... All that stuff is like a disease... and banners will
get us there... No, don't think banners are the way to go.
Better avatars... or the ability to make avatars of the quality of the
homepage ones... now... that would catch an eye...
I want to be the guy / girl that makes them... if only I had the way... If
only... That's my wish.
