Call this a crazy idea, but there seem to be alot of advertisement banners that promote a certain sale rather than just a general site or product. Would it be possible to have a page that displays all current ANN banner adds, so you might scroll through them looking for sales and such?

Maybe it's just me, but is there any way to locate the banner other than reloading the main page a few hundred times?

I went to Animeigo's site and there doesn't seem to be any mention of a deal like this, so it might be just a promo thing with ANN.

I've seen a dozen or so different ads several times apiece already. Nothing even remotely related to AnimEigo or YUA. Is there some other place I should be looking for the alleged banner?

The title of the article blurb is spelled wrong. Arerst should be Arrest.

Yeah, it took me probably about 50 refreshes of the front page before I got the banner. I almost hit refresh and lost it before I realized what it was. You can find the Animeigo page here: http://www.animeigo.com/products/yua-special.t?ID=F

Heh, I just found it. Maybe it wasn't loaded into the ad rotation yet? Thanks for the help.

Stop stealing my ideas!

For the past week I've been thinking ANN needs a page showing our advertisors and their banners.

Should be an easy script to do, so I'll see if Dan can make it sometime in the near future.

Wow. What a good deal. Now, if only the other box sets could get marked down then we would be talking about a GREAT deal.
