Thanks to everyone for the very, very helpful responses. Among the most helpful are the posts stating that using ads is a good way to annoy (or otherwise push) people enough to buy the paid version.
As I've mentioned before, I am a cancer survivor, knocked out of the job market by cancer and its long-term aftermath (former Sr. Network Engineer, and more recently, Special Operations Intelligence), very probably permanently. I seriously need to either boost or (if I'm REALLY lucky) replace disability.... Right now, in my first app, I am hoping that people will get a very positive feeling while viewing my photography---to the point that they'll want to go to my jdgapps site and order photo posters. IF this app is to make any money, that is where it will happen. So the LAST thing I want to do is annoy anyone with ads. This would no doubt impact their view of the entire app, and the photography within.... Not good And posts along those lines were EXTREMELY helpful when it came to making the decision, ultimately, to not use ads at all right now.
