I agree. I hate these ads and layout. Too much space is reserved for those...

I'm thinking if I should find another forum (because these days I come here to tell about my experiences rather than finding new information, that's why I don't actually need a huge forum if I just want to share some useful stuff)

Teamspeed has great folks or so I have heard but they have tons of ads as well. Perhaps the Rennlist or the Rennteam...Too bad they have a bit less TT/GT2 users.

The adds do need to go over to the RH side of the screen IMHO. (good thing I have a wide screen monitor..)

Sucks looking back at how it was exciting to log onto 6speed, all of the cool members, it was like a huge family.. Now I know just a few and rarely post or find topics I like to do so..

Hope all is well with you over on the other side though, TS is an awesome group as well!

I don't mind that sponsors pay for the site so that I can enjoy free membership. But that's a completely separate issue from the fact that the site is unbelievably ugly and hard to look at now. Way too much clutter.

The ads on TS are to the right and non intrusive INMO (the way this place used to be)

And thank goodness they aren't animated !

Geez, and I though it was only the 997 guys that didn't like the new layout.

I'm not liking it either. Too many ads on the left (probably placed that way since we read from left to right and are now subliminally forced to read the ads) make this forum less appealing.

Too much white background too. Why not follow google's attempt at saving energy. Check out blackle.com

It's too bad the higher ups don't really care what we think.

Riz1 is infamous around these parts
i see this site selling out in the future...all these crap ads is just overkill...atleast put the ads in a specfic corner somewhere and not on the left, top and bottom...and what's up with the lambo as the main car pic? i thought this was mainly a Porsche website... i hope they change it the way it used to be
