I can't believe there is even one person that voted banana(to keep the banner). You guys do know that 'Yes' means you want rid of the banner right?
I tried following the link to figure out how I could contact these a**holes that made this banner, because I've also seen it elsewhere besides apolyton, but the page didn't have any contact information, just a stupid form. I understand that advertising money is necessary to keep a site like this running, but allowing an ad like this is aggravanting and flagrantly irresponsible, and is a liability for apolyton.

I voted Banana.
I would've prefered if it was the Bananas in Pajamas though.Today, you are the waves of the Pacific, pushing ever eastward. You are the sequoias rising from the Sierra Nevada, defiant and enduring.Comment

<I>is a liability for apolyton</I>
I take it you are referring to a "legal" liability, BFBA? The answer to this is no; if the banner can be categorized as something that should be changed due to overwhelming and widespread aggrevation with it (and I am not saying whether or not I feel it is or isn't as I have yet to see it myself), it would be the responsibility of the advertiser themselves and perhaps even the advertising agency to do something about it (in Apolyton's case, UGO).
