    HP Ad wrecks top of site

    I have a fairly large monitor... so it's not so much a deal to me... but, even still there's this HP ad that I've gotten at least twice now that's really wrecking the layout at the top... it appears to be about 2.5 times bigger than most ads. That is full sized... between that ad, the toolbars and other chrome stuff at the top... content doesn't start until close to 3/4 the way down the page...

    Yeah. I've seen it too.
    My guess is that the Forums get bigger bucks for such an ad.
    Doesn't really bother me ,, besides, she's kinda cute.

    That's just a mis-assigned ad. Each ad unit has a size that it is targeted for. That spot should never have an ad unit that size in it. If it does, it was a mistake.

    Heidi has already let our ad operations people know, so they will get it kicked out. If you see this type of thing happen, post in feedback like you did, or send me an email. Sending the picture of the ad helps.

    Brad!
