  2. As the topic says, would you prefer advertisements to be extracted from downloads, or added to the gallery? Trick question - they mean the same thing. Or at least they're supposed to. But it's confusing, and several people have pointed it out. Extracting the ads means making a copy of the ad pages in a scan so they can be uploaded to our ad galleries. There's a field in each magazine issue's database entry where the person who uploaded the ads can mark it complete so that other people don't waste their time checking that mag to find ads that have yet to be added. But right now, that indicator reads: "Advertisements extracted? YES" Several people have mentioned that they understood this to mean that the ads had been REMOVED from the scan. This kind of confusion, we don't need. It's been proposed (by me) that "Ads added to gallery?" is a less confusing way of saying the same thing, and it uses less characters, to boot (if space were a concern.) But the only person who can change this is @Phillyman, who so far has been mum on the subject when it's been raised. If you find "Advertisements extracted" to be misleading, or simply find "ads added to gallery" to sound better, SPEAK UP! Reply to this post with your preference, and maybe we can see a change!

  4. Oh god, didn't realise Adverts was a Britishism. Please ignore my comment for all eternity. I now strongly approve of Ads Added. (Nice Haiku)
