At least it isn't one of those talking banners. Those can give you a fright sometimes.

Speaking of which - aren't those kind of banners (mimicking the OS appearance) illegal in Germany? Or was that mimicking OS alert boxes/windows only? Thought I'd seen something about that on Heise a while back ...

Maybe, but since it is on a US website, German law would probably not apply...

True that. Maybe it's dependent on where the adserver and/or company hosting the game itself is located?
**glances at thread title and topic at hand**
Then again - it wasn't really that interesting of a question to begin with ...

Gee, I miss all kinds of fun stuff because I use an anti-banner CSS.

That banner rotates. French, English, Turkish(?), Russian(?) and a couple of other languages. Idiotic.

 Use the Feedback forum if you want these things taken care of. That's the only forum monitored by the guy who pulls ads from circulation.

Ha, I just saw the French one and did a search for "banner" before starting a new thread.
