Guys,
Too much flame here
Adden advised you that simple solution to solve your need to avoid ad blockers. Sure it's not a "self-hosted" version" or something just a quick fix of your problem.
Yes, we did take measure to improve server performance and if it's not in question (for long hopefully) you can use the hosted version, the only one existing for now.
The only dark hidden agenda to make us want hosted-only version at this moment is much worse than anything you suggested: we don't have enough time to devote to this free product. Originally developed for Skalfa needs by me, and then enriched with public interfaces for you by one guy from SkaDate team, it's still not our main project although proved to be useful.
We can't support 2 versions for now, I will be glad if we maintain one (the hosted) somewhat efficiently, so we can only implement new functionality quickly and throw a blog post with news without generating a new revision archive with changelogs, installation manual, howtos, and such.
We spent some time to implement HTML code banners, too - you can already use it for affiliate ads. Unfortunately, it seems technically impossible for it to also support JavaScript ads (cough adsense? cough). Maybe we'll find solution for that, too.
