All of a sudden, I've got this bright white Kia ad with a bunch of sheep.  It takes up all of the space ModDB is not using.  I have a 24" monitor, so that is 462 pixels on each side, or 924 pixels.  That is over 48% of my screen, not even counting the other 2 embedded ads.  When you factor those in, 65.9% of my viewing space is taken up by ads.  Now I understand why you guys need ads and stuff, but over 65% of my screen?

Also, the ads in the margin completely break the site's theme as they are predominantly white.  Below is a screenshot so you can see what I'm talking about: (click if you want to see full size)

Is there any chance you guys could do away with these hideous margin ads?  They make your site look incredibly unprofessional. And not just any kind of "unprofessional", we're talking "hosted on geocities unprofessional".

These ads don't overwrap any of the content shown, they are on the sidemenu. We do not allow any ads which are displayed on top of the real content.
