I feel the same way Liese, and yet I don't see a better alternative. So I'm good with the infrequent Press mention.

We could put the ads in the random quote generator in the upper right. It might balance out the Firefly quotes.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Thanks, you guys. I may just skip it.

Jesse, I lost track of the discussion. How often were you thinking of doing it?
eta...
Never mind. I was looking the wrong place. The mention was in Press, and you said weekly.
That's 52 times a year you'd post in Press. I don't know. To me, that's not something that's going to have a negative impact on my reading of Press, and the links are something I would use, in theory.

Well, the emails come once a week, I think? I don't pay that much attention, honestly.

Sorry, I edited when I should have posted a new message, I think. One post a week certainly doesn't pose a burden for me personally. In truth, most Press posts aren't newsworthy to me personally. At least these are something I might use, and that use would benefit the board.

I have no problem with one post a week in press -- it doesn't seem like a burden to me to scroll past.

Any way to post a deals page under one link?

jesse, skipping it might be fine because it shouldn't become a giant burden for you and if most people aren't doing anything about it, then does it serve a purpose?
