Is it just me or are the ads on Giant Bomb starting to get a bit obscenely big now? Here's what I'm seeing today (this is my full browser pane):
Granted, it's not as bad as the full-page ads that kicked up a storm, but it's pretty damn annoying that the ad is so huge I can't even see any content without scrolling way down.
Sure I could probably subscribe and lose the ads, and I might. But I was considering posting more on my Giant Bomb blog rather than guest writing elsewhere, and I don't really want my audience having to wade through that. So it just puts me off getting more serious about the user content stuff, really.
I don't mind ads, but not to the point where it trashes the design. I've always been delighted by Giant Bomb's great design(s) and it's unfortunate that like too many sites the user experience is becoming ruined by ads.
