When did we start putting links to IMDB?

IMDB is not a sponsor of IMFDB. They also make money the more traffic that is directed their way. I suppose you've noticed the increase in ads and sidebars and popups all over the place on IMDB. They have sponsors and advertisers and PAID memberships that help support their site. Though I have nothing against IMDB (they are a valuable resource), we are not obliged to generate revenue for them, especially over our OWN sponsors.

I totally understand. I didn't think about it in that regard... I just thought about it in turns of what is useful to me/the common user. I will discontinue use of this template. Sorry.
