Better yet, move it somewhere without ads. When I see a geocities or
tripod site advertised on Lugnet, I usually don't bother visiting it
at all, unless the description is extremely enticing. I especially
hate tripod - at least the Geocities ads can be "minimized".
I understand that ozbricks.com is letting people have free LEGO web
sites. If your ISP doesn't include web hosting or you can't pay for a
commercially hosted site, I would recommend giving that a try.
