I won't buy from Adorama anyway. Their service isn't great.  :-)

I think the Adorama advertising okay. It's not horribly intrusive, yet it gets noticed by most. I tend to mentally turn off my ad recognition mode when I'm just having fun on the web. When I'm working, on the other hand, I may go looking for ads. But I know how to leave it at the office:-).

If the advertising didn't work, it wouldn't be there. Web advertisers
carefully record hits and compare them to sales. I'm not happy with
the Adorama ads on photo.net, but I would guess they're working.
Newbies who arrive at the site are probably looking for a place to buy equipment. Bingo: Adorama. And the prices are good. So a sale is made.

The economy is tough these days. Everyone is struggling to survive.
Marketers seize on any edge they can find. Could the Adorama tie-in
backfire for photo.net? Possibly. But chances are, it will prove
successful. The trick is to find the balance between noticeable,
actionable and unintrusive. Right now, it's probably too intrusive,
but not by much. It really doesn't bother me. Didn't even notice it at
first.

Er, but, well - it's an advert. And you are a pro in that world. It's not very _good_ then, is it?
