Thank you for ad blocking

Any site that served ads like that I'd be happy to white list. I'd go further and be happy for uBlock or adblock to never block those sort of ads (uBlock didn't btw).

  * Static images
  * tastefully integrated
  * Self hosted, so no networks tracking me worldwide
  * No JS

I can still read in comfort. Much like newspapers and magazines used to be.

I'd even be happy to click, and perhaps buy from ads like that.

This comes from someone who goes elsewhere rather than turn off noscript or uBlock. :)

Well done, you invented the future of online advertising. Oh, wait...

Speaking of "tastefully integrated"...

I gave up and installed ad block for my parents after they've complained about lewd ads on the local news website.

This is how its "above the fold" looks like without blocked ads (I put red outlines around parts that are content): http://imgur.com/7g5ZmcG

Right now there're no porn ads, but usually it serves them too.
