I'm also very interested in a Greasespot Cafe apron and some of those "to go" cups - you know the thick, reusable plastic cups you get at sporting events....
Coffee cups are cool, but may be expensive to ship. Aprons and plastic cups are cheap and, well, I'm a cheap kinda gal.
Mama scoured the bleachers at the last MSU basketball game to collect plastic 'to go' cups for my little brother and me. We used to HATE feeling like white trash picking up discarded cups when we were younger, but boy-oh-boy were we excited to see she had a fresh stack for us at Christmas!
I even brought back a big one from OBY'S - best DANG Restaurant in the world, imo. When I go home it's not "are" we gonna eat at Oby's but "when". I have yet to find a place in Orlando that can make a Po Boy the way Oby's can. Having those cups from home are not only functional but serve as great conversation starters and reminders of great memories for me.
Okay, I'm rambling and probably a little "too attached" and excited about my plastic cup collection..... I'll shut up now.
On another board, there is an option of becoming a contributing member. It costs $20 a year, or $2.50 a month. With that you get really cool benefits, like your user name in color!!! Along with a contributing member designation. I sure would send money to Greasespot if I could get my name in color here!
OK, I would probably send money to Greasespot anyway, but I have no idea where, or how. Is there a thread on that somewhere?
BTW, the ads are pretty fun! I like how they advertise whatever topic I'm reading about.
did someone say the ads relate to what they're posting about ? or am i crazy ?
when i was posting, i saw urine-off
?????
oooooooooh i like catholic vs. protestants and prayer ringtones !!!!!!
I said that. Like on this topic, the ads are for Google Adsense, and other ad services. Now that I'm posting, the ads have the word "portal" in them. I'm guessing because of the IPB Portal on top. But urine off? LOL! I don't know about that one.
Wow! I didn't know there was a GreaseSpot Store! I'd like some stuff for my car, like a magnet, or those flags, or a GreaseSpot Bumper Sticker. And I'm with Belle. I could use an apron, with pockets.
What does the new logo look like? Is there a color scheme?

Google ads are UNOBTRUSIVE... so, by all means.
Beats the heck out of popups.

I like the plastic cup idea. The new logo will be a bit tougher to put on a t-shirt. It will probably need a decal.
By the way, the new Main site is going to be ready reallly soon

You know my great business sense!!!!
I think that I actually sold about 4 of my inventory of t-shirts (which was going to be a BIG money maker). It's more fun to give them away.

Well, Heck, Paw! I could use another coupla t-shirts - I love the sweatshirts, but would only get to wear it maybe one day a year down here.
I'm serious about the apron - I have found I could really use one.

No. Advertisers do not like paying for false clicks and they should not have to.
Only click on an add if it actually interests you.

I guess my modified HOSTS file is preventing me from seeing the ads. You say they're below the Greasespot Cafe logo at the top of each page?

This is pretty funny. The main page seems to be triggering all kinds of gross cleaning product ads...I'm guessing the name "Greasespot" is doing it.
