Advertising Information for all members

[JeremyB]

As of 1st Dec 2008, all those who manufacture products for sale will be required to pay for their advertising on this website. We would like to thank those who have or currently sponsor the website, but these existing advertising and sponsorships are now null and void.

There will be a small (7 day) window to remove existing banners from signatures. The advertising packages require a commitment of 1 month min. Discounts are available for 12 month packages. All packages will be required to pay in advance.

It will be the manufacturer’s responsibility to advise all who endorse their products, by having advertising banners on their post signature, that they MUST be removed. If they are not removed by the 8th of Dec 2008 you will be charged a removal fee of $25. (Packages are available to allow advertising in your signature).

All members are still permitted to have a web address (max. 1, text link only) link to other sites on the bottom of their posts (i.e. signatures), just no banner ads unless an advertising package has been entered into and paid for.

Details of packages can be obtained by contacting phill [at] murraymonsters.com or info [at] murraymonsters.com (replace [at] with "@" - typed like this to prevent spam) or use the contact page
