TradeDoubler requires a bank account, and I didn't want to put it all in my account until I got around to sorting out a Teh Bank Account, so simplest solution is to use that amount as the starting balance for next year, once I actually get the account setup.<br /> <br /> Um, I'll do a diagram:<br /> <br /> <img src="http://bpsite.net/misc/teh_hosting_status.png" /><br /> <br /> <br /> And that's also excluding the Amazon pot which milko is sorting out very soon, yes? <span class="emoticon e_smile" title=":)"><span class="e__">:)</span></span><br /> <br /> <br /> IOW, I don't think we should/need to bother with the AdSense stuff.<br /> <br /> <br /> However, we should definitely either:<br /> <br /> 1) just restore the auto-referral links.<br /> <br /> 2) write a filter that adds a "teh referral link" option <em>after</em> any normal link, so people have a choice which one to follow.<br /> <br /> 3) same as 2, but in reverse (so main link is referral, and there's a "non referral" placed after it).<div class="edit_text">EDITED: 24 Sep 2008 12:50 by BOUGHTONP</div> </div> <div class="message_footer"> <div class="message_footer_links"><a
