The ad consists of a banner graphic plus text with several links (both the banner and in the text). I decided to put it all in a box with the word "Advertisement" immediately above it in very small text. The advertiser has asked me to change the text word into a graphic of the word. I suspect at least part of this is to hide the commercial nature of the ad from crawlers (which I'm not entirely comfortable with), but I'm not sure of all the implications of doing this. I'm wondering if someone here can spot any other reasons for this request? Thanks for the help! Starhugger
