I have looked into the advert problem. It is a free forum hence the ads, howeve we can pay to keep it ad free. I have set up a donation link at the bottom of the home page whch will take you to a paypal payment page. Even just a £1 donation from everyone would ensure that we were ad free for as long as we wanted and assist in purchasing gallery space for our photos. So, give it a go, and we'll reap the benefits!
Thank you all.
