It seems we are now getting sponsor and/or sister companies logos showing up on Neopets.
It may not seem like much now, but where is it heading?
I feel slightly miffed that it is on the Site Theme. We 'earn' these themes and now they are going to be covered with logos. I know most probably don't view the bottom image much, but that is besides the point!
Neopets is now a part of the "Nickelodeon family" so expect to see even more plugging of Nick in the future. They're already had the Wheel of Slime and a few other games/sponsor ads going on for some time but expect to see more as what's her name that ran the Nick website takes over the site management and plugs and kiddifies it even more.
Well, I must say for a bit, I thought I had just totally missed it for days, but I'm glad to know it just now showed up. Mine doesn't show on every refresh, but I'm definitely going to adblock it.
I must say, though, tiny little ads like that, text based, at the bottom of the screen, and hardly noticeable - I don't mind them so much. The big obtrusive ones - or ones that change the way I play (like that stupid extra link added to the front of our inventory shortcuts list) - those bother me.
Set by KiTeNcHeTu! Find me at WGF, where werewolf rocks!
Nickelodeon has a Neopets logo on the bottom of their site (nick.com), so it just seemed like it was only time before they added something to the Neopets layout.
