Yeah ad is the word. We claim Wikipedia being ad-less but actually we are showing people stuff which only in deep sense is different from ads but looks exactly the same. Or, actually, in this case it looks worse. I really have a difficulty recalling a site which shows me so little content initially because the rest is covered in ads. This all went too far and I hope that Fundraising guys think of less haunting way of calling for donation.

The ad would be slightly more palatable if it used coffee-darkbrown instead of epitaph-black for the plea you can't ignore.
