I appreciate you explaining it, Arieanne, that does help make it a little more bearable, and at the same, that much more aggravating about the paps. Like they aren’t making enough money exploiting and (often) tormenting Lohan? (rhetorical) I have a love/hate relationship that walks a fine line with viewing the pics/vids in the first place since it perpetuates the cycle of Lohan being harassed. I appreciate that you don’t tend to post the pics that are completely invasive and where Lindsay has asked them to quit shooting. There really should be better laws for protection of celebs, but in the meantime, I see it as our responsibility as a group to draw the line by not seeking out pics/vids that, in many cases, jeopardize the safety of our fav fan, much less reveal every moment of their private life.

I have realized you maintain a standard of integrity with the use of pics/videos. I also like that you always keep it positive and support Lindsay (and Sam)!

I’ll try to be more patien with the ads and look forward to a new layout.

Thanks for the commentary hooly. I agree some of the ads are annoying, and hopefully our new layout/design coming soon will make them less in-your-face.

Some of the ads, though, we don’t make money on. For example, in the videos. Those ads were put there by the paparazzi making those videos. And for the photos – well, those are an agreement we have that enables me to share all those lovely photos. Without those ads, we’d be paying many many many thousands a month for the same photos and honestly wouldn’t have them. I’ll take the ads for the ability to share as many photos as I have been able to.

I hope that makes sense! We don’t steal photos here at LohanGroupie, like many sites do, and so we have to make compromises sometimes to get up the great content we do have. :)

Arieanna, I’m all for this site and I especially like your writing style, but there is something that has become too much to overlook without mentioning…the advertising. I realize b5 makes money this way, but the ads have gotten out of control…they’re at the top of the page, they run down the entire right side, links are interspersed in the paragraphs, they’re at the bottom, and now full-blown (even animated) ads are embedded in almost every video and photo. Really, this seems like a good idea? To compromise every last bit of viewing integrity? This is supposed to be a fansite, but it’s gotten to the point where I’m tired of closing out ads just to view a pic. As most of these vids/pics can be found (or are even from) other sites, my prevailing motivation for visiting this site has been your writing, but the ad issue has gotten to the point where it’s outweighing your talent. I think it’s only fair to bring it to your attention to allow the opportunity to reclaim a balance to this site. Which I hope you do, because talent is a horrible thing to waste in exchange for greed.
