LOL looks like someone made a vertical rather than horizontal ad. LOL Or Cris, put it in the wrong slot.

Annoying because it's vertical or because of the ad itself?

Yeah, it is just the wrong ad size (that size is for navigation panels, and called a "skyscraper" in industry terms) and it is in the top nav position. I'm sure Cris will fix it. It isn't one of those annoying "cover content" ads I despise.

Regards,

I got it as well. It think the ad is vertical when you are not logged into SLUniverse and shouldn't be there when you are.
