Because we offer the banner ads for a number of reasons. The ones on the left are given free to mirror providers by way of thanks, and sold to anyone else with an appropriate company or product to raise funds. The ads on the right are given freely to any open source project related to PostgreSQL in some way. > Current ones=20 > are *too* similar in color to the site itself, BTW. That was intentional, though I'm not adverse to different coloured ones if they look good. Regards, Dave.
