Subject: BOARDS

It seems now all the boards that you go to are over run with ads these days. I blame the banner makers and posters more so than anything. It is like they want to write an entire book in a banner.

I applaud the owner of the Va. Replacement Board for at least trying to LIMIT banner size. But their only other recourse would be to take the HTML off the board and then you all would fuss because you can not post your DD's banners, directors couldn't post their pageant info, etc. so maybe this board is a GOOD thing. You can discuss things here, AND congratulate and post banners for Va. on the other board.

While we are on the subject of boards, what are some other good boards? Seems the pink boards are all the same. Does anyone know of any other good boards? Seems that just about all the boards are overrun with ads.

[> The Hot SPOT and WOW board good for congrats/banners without all the repeated posting like Bravo. I also like the Laughing Ladies Pageant Board and the Unbiased Carolina Board (the discussion one). Frankly, I didn't have a problem w/ the Va. Replacement Board other than the BO's THINK they are ISP trackers and are usually DEAD WRONG! LOL -- No name, 10:12:42 05/06/06 Sat [1]

[> Congrat Banners aren't usually the problem. It is the ad banners, especially pageant directors who want to put every piece of info concerning their pageants right down to listing the last dollar prize they are giving out. Why not make banners so you can CLICK for all that garbage! -- No name, 12:57:49 05/06/06 Sat [1]

[> [> one other thing while I am ranting....Why don't people like YOU banner makers tell people ordering banners HOW MUCH EVERYONE HATES BIG BOARD HOGGING BANNERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and those animated ones just drive me nuts!!!!!!!!!!!!!! -- No name, 12:59:17 05/06/06 Sat [1]

[> [> [> Why don't YOU! I actually was not aware of it until I found this board. Wouldn't it make more sense for someone like YOU who knew about it and feels that way to tell them? You can always click on the banners to email them. Also, animated banners can actually load quicker then some non animated banners depending on the file size. When I do animated banners they often are under 120 K whereas some of the crystal clear non-animated banners are 150k plus. -- No name, 13:40:58 05/06/06 Sat [1]

[> [> [> [> Well if someone has a disease they are more prone to listen to a Dr. than to a Pageant Mom. Same with Banners. People more prone to listen to those who make them than those who look at them. I also think you are missing the point. It's not the banners most have problems w/ rather all the garbage that is typed underneath (stuff that could be CLICKED to if someone wanted more info) -- No name, 16:28:34 05/06/06 Sat [1]
