    Actually an option to switch it off would be nice. I Can see how some people would want it.

    Can't wait to see what gets advertised in AH.

    Sure, there's an option in your User CP (Options -> Misc Options) to turn it off.

    Making it a scrolling marquee would reduce vertical real estate on the screen, which I think would be worse than something on the right hand side. Acc. to Regi, most ads are clicked on the left hand side, and I found that even more distracting... But please give us more ideas on how to make it look better.

    If google put their adverts on the right hand side, there must be a good reason for it?

    This is very rough but would something like the attached image work? I know there would be a problem fitting the thread name in though...

    Edit: they would obviously be random adverts there.

    There is a little button beside the search on the ads bar and you can click on it and the bar retracts hiding from view.
