Ads

[Paul]

   I just wanted to let those who wish to know that on Monday and Tuesday we will have two ads for a TV show on the Animal Planet cable channel.

   It is just for two days. Although we would like to find a regular advertiser or sponsor.

   I will post the links to the show info on Monday.

Paul,
What do you mean, "two ads for a tv show".
Is Pet Talk the sponser of the ads or the subject
of the ads? Thanks. Liz

[Paul]

   The ads on our website will help us pay for Pet of the Day and in exchange bring viewers to the Animal Planet channel.

I have always wondered how you ran this site without any sponsorship. I would not object for a minute and hope that you can soon find a good sponsor. Just as long as the ads don't BLINK at you.

blink...blinkblink

When you talk to the folks at Animal Planet, Paul, ask them how people can get their cable company to carry that channel. ATT Broadband is the provider in my area and requests for Animal Planet fall on deaf ears, meanwhile we are overrun with sports channels. ick ick ick (sorry sports fans).

Here, here! I'd subscribe to cable if I were able to get Animal Planet ALL DAY. Unfortunately, it only shows 1/2 day (6am-6pm)---the 1/2 of the day that I'm at skewl/work.

   Ok, these ads do blink. But mostly in a Pet of the Day manner.

   These ads are in Macromedia flash. I think they will be the last ads we have in flash. If you do not see them do not worry. You may use this link to visit Animal Planet.

   Maybe we will have an ad in a third column in the future. But ads above and to the side are too much.

   I hope the program is good. Despite having more than 100 digital cable channels we do not get Animal Planet.

Paul thanks for the warning. I just saw the ad and it definitely gives different look to the site. I think most of us are so addicted to to this site we wouldn't care what you and Karen did. If this helps "pay the bills" you have my complete support. I am one of the lucky ones who gets Animal Planet so the ad is "preaching to the choir" in my house!

Paul--
Great looking ad. We will be watching or taping the show tonight.

Animal Planet is my favorite channel!

I hope that one day in the very near future Animal Planet will be broadcasted in Europe too. It's so nice and fun to watch.

I don't mind adds, as long as they're not blinking.

Hi Paul

I'm busy trying to work out if we'll get the ad. in England

And if it's 8pm over there will it be 2am here?

Or what

So I think I'll set the video for 2am TOMORROW morning and let it run.

Sorry you don't get it in Germany C.C.'s Mom, strange when we get it here in England isn't it?
