Also one of the best (most evil) placements for google ads I have seen in a while. The ad links look like they would open a larger version of the screenshots.

The fact that they are willing to trick their users into clicking on an ad tells it all.

I consider this shameless placement of ads as an insult. It was reason enough for me to not read any further and close the site.

Glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. I continued looking for screenshots yet found none... and even tried looking on the Wiki page which had a good amount of broken links.

In the text "Mona OS ver.0.3.4(Download/Release notes/Screenshots 1 | 2 | 3 | 4)", there you have 4 screenshot links.

Knowing the guy that's working on it, I'd say it isn't anything malicious. Though, I'd agree that the placement of that ad seems really well planned (evil) but more likely poor design.
