    Parts Express banner

    Is it just me, or does this link not work for others either? In other words, when I click on it, nothing happens. The Clearwave and Carada banner both work fine for me.

            Works fine for me..

            It's a Flash device, if you don't have Flash loaded or have Flash blocked it probably won't work.

            The PE banner at the bottom of the each page isn't Flash

              Works for me. Tried it with Firefox 3.5, Chrome 2.0 and Safari 4.0.

                Try clearing your browser cache. PE gave us a bad flash file a few months ago that wasn't clickable. They fixed it shortly afterward but it's possible that some browsers still have the bad file cached.

                    ahh, my default behavior is a middle-click. I have to left-click and leave this site to get it to work.

                      I don't know exactly how HTG manages their advertisers, but most are pay-per-click. Presumably, this thread cost PE a buck or two. My policy on banners is this: If I already know and like the person with the banner (ie. PE or Jed) I type the url in manually instead of clicking the banner to save that person $.05 while achieving the same end as the banner. The exception is when I am actually going to buy something for PE, then, I use the banner (HTG gets a kickback I think??).

                      I could be off base on this, perhaps some advertisers would rather pay the per click price to be able to accurately track referrals. Or maybe HTG doesn't even do per click. As a small businessman myself I am always trying to support the services I appreciate in any way I can, including saving them the click cost if possible.

                        I don't know if HTG uses pay per click or not (we'd have to ask Doug/Lex that question) but I believe PE does use clicks for tracking purposes, to see if the ad is generating enough hits to make it worth the cost. For that reason, it's better to always click through the ad (or save a bookmark with the same URL as the ad link) so that HTG gets credit for each hit. It increases the chance that they'll keep the ad on here if they get lots of traffic, especially orders, from it.

                          Parts Express banner not working
                          by Finleyville
                          Anyway...

                          I was about to make a purchase with PE and wanted to use the link-through banner from this site. However, the banner script doesn't seem to be active. Nothing happens on my PC. Is this a problem with me or the site? BTW the other banners work fine.

                          Check out these pliers guys. I think I am ordering 360-920 and 360-822. Good specialty pliers always come in handy with hobbies, whether speaker building, stained glass, or electrical detail work, whatever.

                          Click the Parts Express banner above so HTG gets credit for the sale. You pay no more when you do that, it just insures they know you came from the Guide. PE was down for a day or so, we had a slight misunderstanding, but they are here now supporting this forum for you guys and more. So, please return...

                          Thinking of my next project already. Contemplating between the Full Size Statements with Center OR the Clearwave 4T SE. Both speakers are priced within a couple hundred of each other. I have read a few reviews about the Clearwave's nothing negative, nothing blowin` away either. I have heard a couple...
