Congratulations to Zach Stern for winning and to all the finalists for some stunning work.

DIMi's new competitions will go up over the weekend.

Why is this post posted? It links to a page FULL of ads.

I posted it here because I thought people might enjoy the photography.

The entire page has 7 ads, only one in the body of the article, and  
most of the rest small and not objectionable. That is hardly full.
No one has to pay or click on an ad, they can see the images and  
indeed enter the competitions for free.

Might I point out that Yahoo is a multi billion dollar business that  
benefits off of our activity here and your post even has a link to a  
highly commercial site.

Frankly I am so over these hysterics that blow up from individuals. I  
am not selling anything to you. End of story. It is the same as ads  
in a magazine article, except you didn't have to buy the magazine.  
Get over it. If the moderators want me off the list, I'll go. But I  
see nothing wrong with occasionally pointing people to something  
useful, whether it is on my site or someone else, when it is on topic  
and costs no one anything. There would be no objection if I pointed  
people to some other article on another ad supported site. To me that  
is a huge double standard.
