I think I should point out that you are technically breaking the Adsense TOS by displaying ads on pages with no content, therefore you risk getting banned. In particular google state publishers may not place ads on 'pages published specifically for the purpose of showing ads'. (http://www.google.com/support/adsense/bin/answer.py?answer=48182)
I think this is a great idea and I wish you success but you may wish to look into another ad network. :wink.gif:
were working on switching to another ad network as-well as making our own
Is it possible if you could change "Download" to something like "Proceed to website" etc.? Because I sometimes think that the green download text (that appears after you wait 5 seconds) is an ad, and get annoyed because I spent ages trying to find the link to the website haha :laugh.gif:

I'm fairly sure people can endure a whole 5 seconds of ads as a thank you to the content creators that spend up to hundreds of hours on their creations
5 seconds is fine. But 30 seconds is a bit much :S
Quoting one of the persons who downloaded my texture pack :
I also haveto say i HATE the download link :/ It was confusing. Try adf.ly?
And I must say I agree with him.
I also think that it's currently the reason that the payout rate is so high : the Proceed link is lost among those big green download images from the FLV player ad, a lot of people probably click on those thinking it's to download the pack/mod/...
It would be nice if you changed this quickly though, I don't want to send people to a trap
PS: Advertising "up to $20 per 1k visits" is not very honest as we have no control over it and it probably won't ever happen, will it ?

Sure

Just disable adblock just for adcraft and your good to go
Is it completely trustworthy?
The real question is what do you have to lose?
The little that is left of my non-"paranoidness".
But you bring up a good point.
what do you mean? like minimum needed to withdraw?
I need to change my password and paypal email
no, the minimum cash earned per 1000 clicks. the cap is $20, but what's the least we can make?
we are
it all depends on how much the ads payout.
Yup
Edit: fixed
