Guys, I think there's a problem with the ads on MSPA. (Hristy we 3<>3 you)

**BlastYoBoots** · 04-09-2011, 01:33 AM

It's got nothing to do with ABP. I use that and more, and it works fine. :/

You had to do something funny to enable it though, like put its button on the bookmarks bar maybe? I assumed the link would tell you. Can't quite remember what I did...

It might also be called "panorama" or the "panorama button". I think the dev team was kinda schizophrenic on this whole function. Works OK when you figure it out, though!

(Seriously, if I got it working in Mac Firefox 4, you should be fine. Firefox 4 is the manual update that moved all your tabs to the top (unless you disable that like I did), in case you need help telling the difference.)

I thought this was the worst ad ever, until I saw it was for Toothpaste For Dinner's store. Now I'm... not sure. I mean, if it's really terrible, but ironically really terrible, that makes it really good, right?

Shit we're bringing in layers and layers of this.

**DecidedlyDevious** · 04-09-2011, 02:55 AM

Obligatory "WE HAVE TO ADVERTISE DEEPER" goes here.

**c_rowles** · 04-09-2011, 01:36 PM

oh damn I knew I shouldn't have waited to check the forums for a thread already about these ads! I go to make one and one exists already. Of course.

Anyway, I screencapped that baby ad when I first noticed it a week ago because holy cow. But today I noticed this:

...what? Can someone who's seen this one before tell me whether or not it's another Toothpaste For Dinner one like the baby ad apparently was?

**fivexthethird** · 04-09-2011, 07:43 PM

...It is apparently for a book about swimming or something.

**Drillgorg** · 04-09-2011, 07:44 PM

Veins is Toothpaste Drew's book. It is actually similar to some of Hussie's stuff, because it is written completely straight but reads absolutely hilariously.

edit: OH MAN, that ad for spicy tornado. It is one of the worst webcomics I have read in a while. Gotta tell the webcomics thread about this.

And for the curious, it produces images like this one:

So the ads gave me this site:
http://www.jambonibrotherspizza.com/

This is the greatest thing I've ever laid my eyes upon. The guy has youtube vids up too!

--dammit, i was just bringing this one here. well, i took the small time to cut it, so here it is again

and also, yes, jamboni brothers is a beautiful thing.

e: whoa, wait, what look at the price difference between the two ads.

**AProcrastinatingWriter** · 04-10-2011, 01:32 PM

I know, sometimes the ads seem so random.

I mean, Andrew can be updating frequently and get like, twelve dollars offered by Project Wonderful,
And then he;ll update with a couple funny but unimportant-in-the-grand-scheme-of-things pesterlogs, and suddenly he's getting 98 dollars and change.

And all I'm thinking is "man I could go for some soup."

**AtomicFeedback!** · 04-12-2011, 07:09 PM

i'm 12 and what is this

i'm 6 and what is this

i'm 3 and what is this

...no really, i am having a hard time figuring out what it is

**Descriptor** · 04-12-2011, 07:15 PM

The hover over text says that it's "Blair Witch with hookers".

Yeah, these ads are seriously getting out of hand. :/

**AProcrastinatingWriter** · 04-12-2011, 07:26 PM

Saw one for El Goonish Shive.

Not sure if good thing.

(The fact they're advertising here, not the fact that they exist, hardy har.)

**AtomicFeedback!** · 04-13-2011, 11:33 AM

veins strikes again

i dont even

these ads, i cant

e: i should probably cut the mspaface out of the ads, but i think it saves me the trouble of posting it seperately

**Newlemming** · 04-13-2011, 02:35 PM

First time I've ever seen that ad.

I laughed pretty hard.

**shatteredAcademic** · 04-13-2011, 05:54 PM

Glad I'm not the only one who was 'wtf?'ing over these ads. Took a screenshot of the blood one the first time it came up. :3

**Drillgorg** · 04-13-2011, 09:10 PM

Drew is the master of ironic advertisements.

**illisid** · 04-14-2011, 02:22 PM

did

did someone really buy adspace here to link to a youtube video of dbz+homestuck?

**mechanicalFactory** · 04-14-2011, 02:29 PM

Wow, that's kinda sad, someone spent around 70 bucks for a stupid youtube video.
I assume that number below the ad means the current price.
At least the money goes to Hussie.

i should clarify. i think this person has done something wonderful

**nixshadow** · 04-14-2011, 02:34 PM

Wow, that is both stupid and hilarious.
a waste of money though

**NotASenator** · 04-14-2011, 02:34 PM

Maybe they just wanted to give Andrew some money + have their video be seen.

Seems like a good 2 for 1.

But man, that video...

aww, how is it a waste? some brave soul was like 'HEY i'll get myself some publicity for something hilarious i made by supporting one of my favorite webcomics'

i think its neat!

**Roserade** · 04-14-2011, 02:44 PM

I'll just leave this here.

Also I love the language used. "ASSUME THE FORM OF A HUMAN INFANT" just sounds like aliens made the ad.

my gog...that is one of the most marvelous things i have ever seen
