Yeah, I was going to support something similar in my ad
software once higher priority tasks are completed. But
moving stuff around on thier site makes it a real hassle. :)
If you want to add a cool new service to your web site,
create your own archive of all of these ads from the various
PSA services and non-profit organizations. Maybe just have a
simple directory with no index page, nice and simple to
connect to and look for new files via software.
