Default Re: MSN directory

The page is chock full of banners. Huge, enourmous banners! 22 of them per page. Why not just change the focus of the directory with a link that reads "see my directory of banners"? At least users would have an idea as to what they might find there.

I challenge you to show me a mainstream search engine that displays 22 banners across the bottom of each page. You'd do well to find one, perhaps two small, tastefully arranged images and they'll most definitely be smaller than 90 pixels x 728 pixels wide.

The premise is reminiscent of voting page one might find at a warez site.

The URL is clever, the name is clever, the premise of the site is fine, the layout is fine and, other than having 22 banners per page, the design is fine.

Remove 21 banners from each page, reduce the page load time by 1.5 minutes and it'll be worthwhile checking out.
