GTM Forum advertising banner

Post by Gemini-Phoenix » Fri Dec 17, 2010 7:17 am

The advertising banner at the top of the forum. This has been doing my head in for some time! :x

I believe there is a Search bar underneath this banner, but for some reason the banner displays incorrectly on the forum and even goes off the screen. Is this a common problem for everyone else? I've tried all browsers, and it displays the same on all of them.

Can someone please sort it out? Align the banner where it is supposed to go, and uncover that Search bar!!!

If you scroll the page to the right a bit the search bar is there...For me it is anyway.

That banner is a pain in the arse. It does indeed push the Search bar to the right, but even on my desktop PC (At 1280x1024 resolution) it still pops off the side of the screen! On my netbook, the forum displays properly to fit the screen, but the banner pushes off to the side

We never had this problem before the banners were introduced. Is there a way to relocate the Search bar, or to just resize the bloody banners? I understand their need to be there, and they are usually unintrusive, but at least make them function properly!

I use Chrome and have never noticed a problem with it.

For me it look okay in fullscreen mode but it goes off the side of the page if the window is smaller and forces me to scroll sideways to find the search box.

It doesn't bother me though. I don't look at it and I don't really use search all that much. If GamesTM wants to make some extra money to offset the cost of the forum then fair play to them. It's not a big deal.
