    Hi,
    first off, to clarify - I am very happy for the forum to have ads.

    But it would be nice if the ad at the top could open a new window (tab).

    I guess you need the advertisers to make the change though...

    Tbh, it's not exactly invasive and having it open in a new window = popup = evil

    Well, there's a nice difference of opinion...

    Ads - same window, or new one?

    Discuss.

    I'd prefer them to open in another window (says the man with 30 firefox windows open at the moment... :D)

    Another vote for them to open in a new window.

    thanks rich :thumb:

    (new window != pop-up) imo. (and if it wasn't flash you could choose yourself anyway)

    As with all our banners, they're designed to open in a new window, so you can check out the special offers but still keep your favourite website open in the original window.

    The banners originally supplied weren't new-window opening, but now that the weekend is over, I received a corrected set and these have been uploaded
