Simply sign up for Xanga Premium!

Note You have risks getting your Xanga shut down if you use the ad remover.

Please read it.

It's all about giving back! (By Micron)
http://www.createblog.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=160

As you all remember from my Welcoming thread (you did read it right?), I mentioned about takers - how they only know how to take, and never think about giving back. I realized something today - not only does this concept apply to you as forum members, but to all of us as a community towards Xanga (the dot com site).

Now Xanga has done some great things for us (Nod your heads everyone!). They helped bring our unique personalities online, gave us something useful to do on the internet for a change, and gave us a new avenue to make new friends, all through their free blog service. That's right folks, absolutely for free! Now I don't know how you feel when you recieve free things that you have done nothing in particular to deserve, but let me tell you how you should feel! If you're a normal human like me (I really am, I promise!), then naturally, you would feel grateful. Thats right - that means you would naturally want to do something in return (the keyword here being natural!) - because, afterall, we're a community who loves to give back, right? (do I hear a Y-E-S, that spells yes!?)

So what should you do you ask? Well, simple. You leave the ad banner intact. Infact, you should be so grateful you ought to be proud to be able to give back to the site you love! (Just ask yourself, where would we all be without Xanga?!) You see, by using a "banner disabler" (wicked! wicked!) you are eating away from Xanga's revenues, in turn doing them harm! Seesh, so much for your gratitude, right? But thank heavens! Since we're all normal humans here who love giving back, such a thing would never happen! Ever!

Yup, thats right guys! As my pledge to give back to the site we all owe, I have decided to pull off the "banner disabler". Now if you are currently using this script (accidently ofcourse, heaven forbid it was on purpose!) please do Xanga and us a favor and yank it off! Who needs them anyway! I'm proud to be a supporter of Xanga! So should you!

Be a proud Xangan - Be the Xangans! _smile.gif

I totally agree with that.
Either get premium, or keep the banner.

Well, I think the message above there is so right.
Only because we want our xanga to look good , doesn't mean we should be selfish and take the xanga Ad out of our site.
Xanga doesn't really owe us anything. Infact, we owe them a lot for being generous and kind enough to let us have our own page for free.
The least we could do in return is to either go premium ( if you don't want the ad) OR Keep The Ad.
....That's my voice and I'm out of here.

I actually like the ad. That way people can come to your site, see your layout, see the ad, and think "WHOA! how do they DO that?"

the ad is a symbol of xangans
if there is no ad on top of our journals, it looks quite strange and funny
i did use those removers, but i felt not good
keeping them doesn't harm us, but make us clearly what we are doing- using xanga freely....we should remember what the xanga officials have given to us~

I totally agree. THe banner never bothered me. I actually click it from time to time. o.O

Actually, we're lucky. So many free sites out there have so much more annoying advertising than just a simple banner at the time of the page. Like multiple popups..Or geocity's little side thing that I always find crashes my old comp. x.x

Yes, you can still use the mover. As long as you're not disabling the banner itself, it's fine.

I need to get rid of it... the removal code, that is. It came in one of the layouts that I had... but now that I have my own layout (which is kinda screwed up but I don't really care...) I don't mind if the ad is there... I mean, what's it hurting? I've been with free EVERYTHiNG so long that I'm used to banners :P

I wouldn't have a problem with it, if it weren't screwing with my cute Naruto layout by blocking out his hair!!! The amount of revenues we take away is based on how many people visit our sites, and out of those many people how many would even get premium, let alone join Xanga.

haha i wanna join that team late night.
that's how i always code/do layouts&photoshop. i just wait until the last second before i wanted it done /or/ whoever im making it for wanted it. then i make a pizza in the oven, have a cig, and sit until i'm finished. the last layout that i did that gave me any trouble i was in front of my computer for 3 straight days (though i did frequent a smoke break). you can go see it :here:.
