MySpace Restricts CSS

[iconoclast]

I wanted to get rid of the banner ad on mysapce for people on IE (or on FF without adblock) so I went to place an image over it using z-index and it didn't work, and I couldn't figure out why, but when I looked at my CSS, z-index:100 had been changed to ".."!

So much for my friends not having to view the banner ads.

They will ban you if you block their ads with CSS... Just a warning.

And if you had succeeded your account would have been removed. It's against the rules there and they take it very seriously.

Meh, good thing it didn't work then I suppose.

the adds aren't that bad, you might see a hot girl every once in a while so wut's the harm

What people don't realise when suggesting this is that it costs money, and a lot more time.

my space has millions of users. including my self. they need a lot of money to pay to run the servers. i know the ads are anoying. like click here to make george bush lift his biceps and beat Arond's 6 pack.

but they are needed. and most ads are just a small banner and a meduim box on your acount page.

Or there is also TagWorld, which I found to be a little bit better then MySpace.
