Datek link

Well, I would be inclined to say that this is an ad. Granted Datek is part of the PA conglomerate, but the word "sponsored" sure makes it read like an ad.

I thought I remember them saying they were committed to not having ads on member pages!! I hope this is only a test of the new pages they are working on. I could see if it were just a link to Datek, cause eventually I believe that they will all be the same company, but "sponsored" irks me.

just my 2 cents.... sorry to be negative.

I agree with the anti-green sentiment. I find my eyes moving up there on each page (which may be effective for advertising, but I'm finding it just plain annoying -- something that doesn't help the sponsor).

It's way too hot a color for this design. A nice light blue like #ccccff would serve to highlight the link but still match the gray and yellow far better than this color.
