    Good day to all AGD members!

    I like the site. Your facebook link is broken. I would recommend that you make the logo at the top clickable, because a lot of people expect it to be clickable. It should go to the homepage. I'm not sure if it's the same in Norwegian, European languages often use capitals completely...

    WARN: Affiliate account Phishing

    Yes, it's always great when a program really is sending emails with a reply address at a completely unrelated domain like transactions-vpl-news-service.com It would have been way too easy to just use their regular email address...

    Email Subscriptions and Newsletter providers

    Sorry to hear that, I also found the same with quite of few of the bigger reliable services which is another reason why I chose to do it myself. If using a 3rd party service and the TOS doesn't specifically mention acceptable content then it's definitely worthwhile to contact the company to see...

    Email Subscriptions and Newsletter providers

    Why not send them yourself instead of using a 3rd party service? I know the services advertise higher deliverability rates so more mails get past spam filters, but if your own server is setup correctly (eg. SPF records) then you can still have good deliverability by sending the emails yourself...

    Content theft and redirecting site - need advice

    One other possibility - since you only noticed this redirection AFTER you started reporting their content theft, it's possible they realized their theft had been noticed (eg. if an affiliate manager contacted them about the theft) so they made their site 'disappear' by redirecting it, to avoid...

    Your thought's, flash vs gif?

    If you convert a GIF to a PNG it doesn't increase the number of colors, the color palette stays the same so it will still have 256 colors (or less). The filesize of a PNG is always smaller. Also GIFs aren't lossy, they retain all information, unlike a JPG. No, you must be thinking of saving...

    Your thought's, flash vs gif?

    Good point, I didn't think about that because I don't use animation, I don't want to grab anyone's attention :) I mean when I'm on a website I hate things moving around in my peripheral vision, I'm more likely to close the page just to get rid of it! So I tend to mostly use text links with...

    Your thought's, flash vs gif?

    Well I would say PNG :) No reason to use a GIF when the same exact image will ALWAYS be smaller when you convert it to a PNG. No loss of detail (unlike lossy jpgs), just a better format. My final step is to always run the files through 'PNG Gauntlet' software which makes the filesize even...

    Click Tracking Software

    I use Piwik for tracking site stats and it does a good job of showing outgoing clicks, plus I use PrettyLinkPro for WordPress which makes it easy to track the aff links (also makes it easy to change aff links throughout a whole site).

    Coming off a HUGE database Hack

    Just one tip with the database, I use HeidiSQL instead of phpMyAdmin. Basically it allows you to edit database contents using software on your PC instead of through a browser, so it runs a bit smoother and is a bit more customizable. And it's free and open-source. I use it for editing a...

    vBulletin Forum Owners - Blog Spam Remover

    I have a vBulletin forum, but it has almost no members. Plenty of signups, but they're all spammers! I have it set to require manual approval of all signups, and I always check the email address and IP address through the StopForumSpam system first before approving. StopForumSpam catches over...

    iAffiliates not paying commission since April

    I've never heard of any program asking an affiliate for proof of identity, has anybody else ever been asked for this from any program? It sounds like this person is used to dealing with players, not affiliates! Maybe they were only transferred from player support recently?
