Thanks for the suggestion. Works here at work. I'll be installing it at home as well. The hot babes don't bother me, just ads in general. My wife, of course, does not understand their appearance, in any case.

Stupid gig bag now. Sheesh...

How do you do that?

Someone should use the "Bad Idea T-Shirt" girl in an amps ad. Maybe have her "strategically" holding a Genz Shuttle or perhaps "standing" next to an Ampeg 810 or something.

We must go to the same things....that tshirt chick is......like a fuzzed out bass tone.

Equally sad here. I keep getting Darryl Jones in a doo-rag trying to sell me Dunlop strings.

I used to get adds for basses and amps and related things, then my daughter used my computer to look for a dress to go to a wedding in.

Now I get the Bad Idea Tees, the girl with the big rack and Cute Japanese Fashion, cute oriental chicks in very short skirts and dresses.

Since I followed Peavey's link I now have an ad for AVG Antivirus (and I use Linux).

The request must have been honored b/c I don't see any ads on the left anymore.

Yeah. I do! I like the one with the girl wearing the T shirt stating that she "pooped" today, and also the one with the daisy dukes on laying on the deck with her arm over her head.

Im kind of a perv...

That one has to be photoshopped. No woman looks like that. And I've seen one or two.

The tights girl? Yeah, I'll bump that in the low mids!
