"For me, the blog a mixture of design and ads. There are some posts i like, some that i don’t, probably there are sponsored posts in the blog…and that’s all. Design is an ads itself"

So i invite you to do a design showcase/critique on the content, and what about it meets the merit of design?

I am not trying to be factious, just curious of your logic on this, because I see the standard template product promotion from the photography style to the linear block by block layout.

I understand you need people posting but the resistance to call the article an ad is bizarre. Product placement advertising is stretching from away from design to marketing/sales. I understand the two are linked. but there is a fine line.

By all means ignore and justify why this stuff is posted but honestly IMO it ruins the credibility of small forums like this. I don't mind kitchen products, I love utensils, but i at least call it what it is.
