Yes contributing members will help te, and thats why we started premium memberships. Its important for us that those who contribute are given something as an extra. Please subscribe if you want to support te. I thank you again for your kind gesture.

Safin, what I'm hearing is that everyone is OK with the ads as long as it's not shown *within* a post - it should be *between* posts. I suggested and opted for a premium membership because it's the easy way out to avoiding these ads *within* posts... as I said earlier, this ad placement is bad design and if it's a technical issue you guys are struggling with, I'd be happy to help and I'm sure there are a bunch of experienced programmers around here who can too.
With all due respect, if the ad placements were a conscious design decision after a lot of discussion, it a bad one. I eluded to getting help from programmers because off the bat, the inappropriate ad placement looks like a mistake or oversight 
Anyway, I've been involved in designing online commerce tools for consumers and ads *within a post* is misuse of real estate That's just my opinion and I don't really have to care so much because as soon as the payment gateway is up, I pay to get rid of these ads 
Anyway, I've been involved in designing online commerce tools for consumers and ads *within a post* is misuse of real estate That's just my opinion and I don't really have to care so much because as soon as the payment gateway is up, I pay to get rid of these ads ^^ technically speaking, none of the ads appear within your post. they appear below the post (i.e, between your post and your signature). i agree you reserve all rights for your post but don assume that entire rectangular post box as your personal property.
anyways, i think its enough now and we have clarified our position many times since the launch of this new design. I repeat we'll stick to this design as long its helpful and for the betterment of TE. Personally, I browse TE with ads on always and I don ever feel its annoying or irritating. If any of you feel the ads on TE are annoying in anyway, i'm sorry to say then you guys don really know what annoying ads mean.

I'm sure you guys will have data in a week/month that will determine whether the new ad placements are effective or not, but from experience, misplaced ads are as good as no ads.
I'm voicing my opinion in TE's best interest man, not mine
This is the only Indian site I'm currently a member with because it's waaaay better than the others that thrive on spam and mindless topics.
