Well, daily (practically hourly) I'm less and less inclined to worry about trying to reproduce the old charts or replace them with something comparable. In the big scheme of things, the charts and portfolio pages got very few visits. Few enough that advertising by itself couldn't possibly offset the cost of a replacement. This is also true of the QuoteMedia charts we're currently carrying and when that contract expires it's very unlikely I'll renew. I'm pleased with the performance of those charts in the simplistic way I use charts, but the cost is higher than even the more frequently-visited old version of charts could generate in ad revenue. I really dislike cost centers that can't even be argued to make much indirect income.
