Note: found the fix.
I’ve updated to Wordpress 2.3 and discovered “is_home” doesn’t work - and not just if you use a static page as your first page. Somehow, Wordpress seems to be interpreting every “page” as the home page. My home-only stuff is showing up on Page 2, 3, etc. as well as all my [...]

Once upon a time, CrispAds paid like clockwork. Then they stopped paying altogether. I made many efforts to contact them, to no avail. Then CrispAds was sold to a new owner, who actually paid me my balance. So I started using them again.

The BlogHer ad system is working as well as I expected in my original post, so I applied for this site and one other. The other site, they accepted once they’d reviewed it a bit.
