The amount, size, placement, and etc, of advertisements on the pages is getting a bit obnoxious (one ad that scrolled across the screen was very obnoxious). I understand the need and the desire for advertising, but the pages are starting to look like billboards with some content thrown in instead of the other way around.
Have to admit that I think the work that Dani has put into the placement of ads integral to the site layout without impacting upon usability/readability is amongst the best I have encountered.
As others have said, there should be no scrolly ads as Dani is pretty strict with the advertising folk over what she will and and will not allow here.

I see you are an administrator as well as a member of this forum in a variety of capacities, so I'm not surprised to see that you appreciate the efforts this site takes to balance the needs of advertisers with the needs of the forum members. But I trust you would be objective and criticise this site if you thought something was in need of criticism, so I take it that you are being honest and not just jumping to Dani's defense as a loyal member of this website/forum.
I disagree with you about it being the best or even better than many other forums. I post frequently on about 10 programming/web dev forums and daniweb ranks low in that regards.
Of all the forums I post on, this is the only one I have ever bothered to mention that the advertisments are starting to get too prominent, or as I put it: obnoxious.
Anyways, I've made my point, there is nothing new for me to add to it. This is a good site, keep up the good work.
i think daniwebs ads are great
they dont get in the way and daniweb is free unlike say experts echange where there are loads of ads and you have to pay
