Advertising on 43 Folders

Hate the Ads?Text and graphical advertising are the easiest and most convenient way for 43 Folders to continue growing and providing its readers with free, Creative Commons-licensed content. Still, we acknowledge that these ads are regarded as an intrusive annoyance by some of our most loyal readers. We value your visits more than a fast buck, and so we seek to strike the right balance between your enjoyment and bringing in the green we need to keep the lights on. We begin with the simple premise that people who hate ads don't click on them. So why compel people to be subjected to something that ends up benefitting neither of us? You might consider using ad filtering in your web browser. The most popular means for this is the open source Firefox browser, used in conjunction with the AdBlock extension. Users of OS X's Safari can use the excellent PithHelmet for this purpose. Thanks for your continued visits as well for your support and understanding. POSTED IN:
