Just re-reding "The last place you look" and at the bottom of the left colum was this "diaper cake". Is the site taking advertising? Just asking Ian

Happened on a couple of other stories too. I did not test exhaustively.

Wes had the site set up to include advertising from I think pretty much day one. I use Opera and have it's built-in ad blocker turned on, so don't notice much. It doesn't block all ads, and I do see that diaper cake ad down at the bottom of the left column when I use my primary Web browser. I noticed a lot more advertising in the past when checking pages in Internet Explorer or Edge, which doesn't have an ad blocker turned on. I haven't used it or Firefox much as there haven't been new story pages that I need to check. It could be that some of the ad links are expiring or need updating in the old pages to keep working, but I just don't notice them in Opera with the ad blocker in place. Ads will be visible occasionally, installed by Wes, and I haven't done anything to them out of respect for Kathy. I used to click on a few ads occasionally just to give them the added revenue, but haven't for a while now as I just don't see them much. I did click up that diaper cake ad to see what it was as there was just the text link, no image included (maybe because it was blocked?), didn't try to check for any reason behind it. There should be an ad beneath the Spearfish Lake Tales banner in the main column, but I don't see one. I just clicked the site up in Edge and there's a big white space for one, but no ad visible. Like I said, either the ad link expired, or I goofed it up in one of my many updates to the page (every new book, coming soon and launch gets a re-do of the page), and it's rife with html errors anyway. I never bothered to try and clean it all up. I don't remember what all is supposed to be available ad space in the story pages. Not Wes

Thank you Not Wes for the looking at this. It has little impact on the experiance of the site which I still enjoy dipping back into. Ian
