Those names are really something. Love it.

If the name comes to mind, please share it.

Couldn't read them all, but I'm curious if there's a name referencing the company Stripe? ... These gradients always remind me of their website

actually does not exist. But it can be added. How about "Stripe Transaction" Not funny enough. I will think a little. Do you have a suggestion?

"Stripe copied us"

The webflow ads have piqued my interest. A lot of nice little projects are shown on Show HN but I don't know if I've ever seen any to feature any sort of sponsorship right off the bat. Pretty clever to throw that in there. Do you have any lessons learned to share about the process behind it? (If it came from an easy personal connection just to show proof of concept, that's cool too!)

Thanks for the feedback. In fact, they affiliate links. I put it to try the Egg-ads concept.

I really love how well it blends in with the rest of the content. I noticed it right away but it's not distracting enough to be annoying. Nice work!

Very nice! Instantly made me think of that receptionist girl in Total Recall, Schwarzenegger version.

I also like the ads, nice job. Some tips:

You should increase the surface area of your tags in the ads. Ideally they would cover the whole card and the egg, too. Also, consider adding a hover effect and a "pointer" cursor. I was trying to click your ads and I couldn't figure out how to!
