Is it really necessary to insert the same distracting, repetative, moving advert at the head of every article in Artima? It's incredibly, horribly distracting and makes reading the articles themselves an unpleasant experience. They completely destroy the integrity of the site design.
I know you need adverts for the revenue but don't become a slave to the money they bring in. Please, can you at least insist that they are static. (Oh, and promise me you'll never have those stupid pop-up adverts that insert themselves between the article and the reader.)
I too agree with you but I think, they site can not do what you asked for( as they are revenue generators ). Instead you can use Firefox and install add ons for it( they are quite a number of Firefox Ad blocker ad ons available ).
