Yes, please, make sure you are on a friendly vid chat environment, and hide everything you dont want people to see...

First off, welcome back staff and everyone else 
New theme will take some time to get used to - I'm an old dog, and don't change easy - The in-post ads are a little over the top IMO. Like zukracer I think there should be an option to donate to remove them, or maybe have them only show for unregistered/low post members. After all, it's the members that make the content that bring other people here.

I'm not anti ads just didnt like the placement of them in the sides of posts. Just like when the ads came out the first time there was some complaints and in time things got better....hopefully this will go that way as well. I fully understand the value the ads bring (used to work in that industry) and have clicked through many of them. There has been many discussions about supporting or paid memberships over the years, Capt has said time and time again he wants the site to be free to all and some long ago history I'm sure plays into his decisions. I dont know how much went into the redesign, its beyond our input obviously so we will have to live with it, proper tuning of your browser settings can eliminate most of the ads.

I would pay to have no ads. Yes, I know, free this, free that. Less clutter.
What we did on the Pashnit Forum as give members the option to pay $20 per year and it would remove the Google Ads from the forum. Can pay 1 yr or 2 yrs up front.
But yes, these things are very expensive to run: my server costs are pushing $500 month for Pashnit.com. Add in maint costs & I think I pushed $800/mo in 2010 just in hosting & maintenance costs.
More power to you Doug!
