is this Search Amazon thingy on the left side of the opening screen a new development? Does it help pay for the cost of the forum?
I don't remember seeing it before. When I come on, I have to use the scroll button on the bottom now in order to see all the way across the page. That's the only reason I'm asking :)

I'm sure it's something BOOM is testing and working on.
I doubt it will stay in that same position. When you come back tomorrow, it will probably be somewhere else on the page. :D

Actually the cost of the forum is taken care of for the first year.......and after that also.........but I do believe that certain ones help to raise money which could be used to offset the cost of the forum......and the trips that the admin all want to go on.......... :D :D :D :D :D

I appreciate those who are providing this forum for all of us to enjoy. And I appreciate all of the admin who have to sort through, weed out, and take care of whatever problems arise. If we could afford it, I'd say all of you deserve a cruise. Too bad you all are connected with us poor folk.
Oh well, someday..................
Our Father owns the cattle on a thousand hills, doncha know. So one day, you will be richer than you will know what to do with. Hallelujah! Won't that be wonderful!

If you click on the amazon link and make any purchases on that site using the link here, the forum will get a percentage of the purchase. This will go toward future hosting costs. The forum will also get something for every person who downloads mozilla firefox through the link provided here. (At least I think that was right)
I know that on some other forums I go to, if enough purchases are made through the affiliate links--that amazon gives gift certificates to the forum owners to use as prize drawings for members. I'm not sure how all that works though, I'd have to do some more research.

Margie,
The best way to spot light it was to set up and leave it for a day.
I saw right off that it moved the page over. I expect to repair that tonight.

Okay, so I was wrong Margie. I was a day off. You didn't wake up TODAY and find it moved...but you may wake up TOMORROW and find it moved. :heeheehee

I wonder if anyone would be interested in drawings for Amazon certs?
That is totally doable.

BOOM, is the Amazon thing gone now??
Last night when I went to open up AFF, it would open, but then it would immediately switch to a page that it couldn't open the website I was looking for. Was that just me or were you working on something? or was something broken??? Just curious.

I am tempted to type- It is just you and come back tonight. :lol
I added some line ads that were SUPPOSED to be for Music and CD's. Specifically Gospel Music ads only. One of the CD's turned out to be bad, bad, bad, bad. Seems to work around the censors, some one added this product as "Gospel music" and a review of the Amazon board dealing with this showed others had the same bad experience.
:aaa
Fool me once shame on me. Fool me twice shall never be. I still have the affilation, but have removed all ads and links to Amazon. I instead suggest www.christianbook.com for music. :ranting
Sorry to be messin with your mind. One day soon you will find a new front page, but it will be overall new.

Margie, before you ask.....
On Teal and Blue
The link in the lower left corner was in the Verse Bar at the top. I am not messing with you. My internet was splotcy all day today.
It did not flow well with the Verse Of The Day, and took away from that purpose- VOTD!.
Google Ads will go away for registered members.
I have tried this and it is too much to maintain the links- removing ads that compete with us. Guests will see the Firefox and Google Checkout offers...... another incentive to login as a member.
I hope to have the change over on the Footers done tomorrow----- if I have full internet access.
