You may have noticed the larger sponsor banners across the top. They are actually shorter so not as much vertical scroll space, but we're taking advantage of horizontal blank space that wasn't being utilized before. This new banner size also meets international standards and will help us attract more major brands. It will take awhile for all the sponsors to convert their banner to the new size. I have also reorganized the Sponsors page grouping similar businesses together. You can also view that new organization below.
