    "They have no point as you can scroll. Don't you ever scroll down through emails? Are all your word docs on one page?"

    You're kind of missing the point - most people don't care about your pretty advert - they have a short attention span.

    You can flip pages in magazines, for sure, but the adverts towards the front, at top and on odd-numbered pages cost more than even-ones at bottom in the middle.

    That's why the area of attention is called 'above the fold'.

    Don't get me wrong, I think 250px is a bit extreme, but you can work around it - you just need the Loud Shout there, then you can have all your lovely aesthetic doodling below, once you've attracted your punters' attention.
