Nick, I am hurt that Lee did not come to Oprano to make a post about her product.... Guess we are not good enough.

MikeAI is not that Oprano is good enough, Oprano has more solid webmasters than all the noise on GFY.

Its hard for them to participate in a thread that is not one of, "Would you hit her", "My dog puked up lottery ticket"....

But to us it was a litmus test, we put ourselves in harms way and really given the nature of that place, the natives were not all that restless.

Despite trying to address what we could so as not to be accused of "tap dancing", we were still accused.

It does not matter what the industry thinks, if we want to do it, we can, but its pointless to resource a project [need human image reviewers] if there is no need for this.

We admit this is a beginning point, we would hope it would attract others that could take this concept and improve it. We are not a solution, we are the beginning of the means to come to push back and give sponsors a way to identify business within their affiliate programs they want to dis-associate from.

So many have lost control over where their banners are. Some affiliate programs only ask their affiliate for one URL when they sign up, and often times that URL is not working.

We have the ability to cross reference databases, and identify where banners are located, if the sponsor really wants to know. Some don't want them on passwords sites, warez or celebs...

We do not do anything but turn over information red flagged based on the sponsors criteria, what they do with this, is their business, we are not here to pass judgements.

The human element is important so as to not report false positives based on word matches. The service has to be fee based to cover the costs of the check and balance systems.

Now that the pot shots are over, it will come down to Sniffy running in the hands of some sponsors who can then tell if this has any value. We already have been offered places to cut Sniffy loose.

Alot of refinement is ahead, and alot of issues too, but at least we are trying, and for that I don't mind being damned :-)
