Snowest / Harris Publishing Needs Help!

Christopher or somebody can you please help the Harris folks get these ads under control. The problem I have isn't with the ads themselves its with the formatting. They are all different sizes. It screws up the display and when your on a phone or iPad you end up with a super wide ad up top then it makes it hard to read text. I also get the same exact ad multiple times on the same page. There is a fine line of making the ads stand out and just making people hate them.

Harris, please let Christopher or somebody else manage the placement and formatting to ensure a pleasurable viewing experience .

As funny as it is this scene from the movie Idiocracy, this is what SW is turning into........IMO This example actually looks better than SW:face-icon-small-coo

This is what I get all the time.

I log into the site in
FireFox
Internet Explorer
Google Chrome

and can't get any of them to display like that?

If we can figure out HOW to replicate that, "THEN" we have somewhere to go when I bring it up to the advertising department.
 
My Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone display like the one above. I couldn't tell you about anything else because I only have Mac's.
 
This can't be what the advertising folks want SW to look like on a 27 inch monitor.

Let alone duplicate ads.

C'mon Christopher. I know you can teach them how to do it better. This kind of quality doesn't represent the kind of top notch advertising firm Harris publishing is.

Why do you need to duplicate it if everyone says it sucks and they are through paying until it changes.

Try something new already, it's broke, fix it. Sometimes "broken" is inexplicable, doesn't matter how or why, it's just time to fix the damn thing before it's too late and time takes your harvest away........Day in the life of a farmer.

You have the voices yelling, only so long before they give up and move on.

IE for me, same experiences as above. Have we hit the give a **** count yet?
 
Only when they are able to replicate it are they going to be able to go into their display code and alter that code to stop the double stacking.
Right now I can't see it and neither can they.
So there is nothing for them to fix yet.
 
Thinking more along the lines of side ad Elimination. Hard to double stack if it's not there.

Somebody at a publishing company has to own a Mac.
 
I thought this was the way you guys wanted the adds to show up? I get double and TRIPPLE stacked adds all the time. Just figured it went along with all the other issues. Eric

I think you have it right, excuses seem to be the only response to the complaints.
 
I would like to keep this professional. They have a business to run and advertising is at the core of it. They do not want to upset their member base. They may genuinely not know there is a problem. When you go into attack mode they will get defensive and that is good for nobody.

I just want to view SnoWest without having to zoom in all the time because of the ad formatting.
