    Hey,

    Just an idea. Habboxforum could probably make some additional money by selling the top left bit to people.

    Just an idea . Obviously it will be in same font as "Welcome, Saurav User CP" etc so it looks neater.

    Should be possible to add text there by editing the skin slightly.

    I'm not so sure. I think it would look a bit tacky and out of place.

    Ultimately this is a business decision therefore rests with Jin, I don't think it'd look too good so it depends on how much money it would make as to whether it'd be beneficial.

    We need to get the normal ads back too, but they are only gone temporarily.

    I know it looks crap in the screenshot cos of the ugly huge font, but with the normal one, it would look fine.

    Its just an idea for additional money, thats all.

    Yeah I did think that when I looked at it it would look a little better in the same sized font as the user options, however I suppose it all depends on what revenue it could bring in.

    This is how it would actually look.

    That does look a lot better

    Out of interest, how much would someone pay to advertise their site in a little area like that on something like Habbox Forum?

    That's a nice idea however I'm not sure how popular it'd be, there was a "do you want to advertise here?" thing on the old forum for ages and it was always google ads so I don't think anyone took it up.

    Depends who habboxforum sell it to - to its members or to outsiders. If outsiders then it depends on Google PageRank on its toolbar, Uniques and Pageviews - lower the PR, lower you get for it.

    If to members, then well it just depends what they are willing to pay. I would guess about £20 a month tbh as the audience is limited and the members arent exactly all rich.

    Mainly because when I asked sierk, the quote he gave me was something crazy like £250-£500 per month.
