that was them. There's a mix of ads within the ad spot templates, and the google ads. I have removed all google ad placemnets (techincally, they were openX ads that I had provided to 711, but using googlead's mod, which I will probably delete).

my idea is that the ads should be consistent on every page. The same spots, in the same places....like you see on gamespot, or CNN.com, or other sites. The content and the ads don't move, so you know where things are, things aren't as intrusive and disrtacting, etc.

I've added the 728x90 to the footer...but I think I'm going to cut that one. It depends on volume. The reason is the 300x250's aren't on the forum index (becasue when I do add them, it actually puts them twice, meaning 2x2 ads....at 300x250 apiece). So...728x90 at the bottom, and we'll see how it goes.

I've modified some of the copyright stuff, and will make some other minor changes as needed tonight and tomorrow. We'll be removing a lot of redundant and dead plugins as well, so ....keep your eyes out for lost or dysfunctional ....functions.
