Wikipedia has turned down an offer by AOL to sell one leaderboard ad across their Wikipedia domain name. In return AOL promises to host the website for free and Wikipedia is free to donate the estimated 100 Million Dollars that the leaderboard would generate per year to any charity of their choice.

Jason Calacanis, founder of Weblogs, was unable to convince Wikipedia creator Jimmy Wales to take the offer.

Well I had this one laying around here, hope you all like the new style.

I got this from vBSkinworks - Custom vBulletin Skins, Styles and more

Great work skinning John!

I'm never fond of left/right columns in forums, but I do like the skin... Very crisp and professional without being 'clinical'... vBskinworks does do good work.

I have never really been too fond of it either, but I actually like it on this current style.

And besides, its default, I didn't add a thing .

I like to see how the recipe mod looks on a new style

Pretty nice skin i could say... But wouldn't pay for it.

I bought street rod from them a while ago, and forgot I had a buy 1 get 1 free.

So I opened a ticket to see if I could get itt, and I did

I liked the colors. Pretty nice choice

I did the same thing once, I had bought a style from vbskinsworks and asked John is I still had the buy 1 get 1 free deal going on. Now I have 2 styles that I'm not using..lol John does do great stuff, very unique and professional.

I do have a suggestion, maybe move your news bubble up to blend in with the header. Replace the logo and stuff to the right of the stats, with the orange bubble with the latest news. Just a thought

Good looking site Mike.

Thanks for the suggestions Loco,

I would do the logo, but I cannot do the graphics, so waiting for someone that is good with them .

Removing the stats now.

I like the vBSEO style.
