No big deal, you scroll down and it's gone from view.

I think it's great to see a board member being supported by the ad. :D

For me, it is a big deal. I don't like it at all. I paid a premium fee on another forum to not have to look at ads like this. This is the first on this forum. But how many more will follow? I hope this forum doesn't get bombarded with ads.

Hi Ruth,

It hasn't been removed. It's still here:

http://www.quiltedparadise.com/n/977-owz.jsp

As a matter of fact, the newsletter announcement about this e-book has just been released.

I understand about the blinking, but that's a trade-off. The more noticeable the ad, the less the is amount of time it needs to run to make sure everyone has seen it.

I would hate to have to run a (less distracting) ad for 3 months in the same prominent spot on the board, when I can run an ad that blinks for just a few days, and then remove it.

The result will be the same, but the total amount of distraction caused by the promotion will be much less in the long run.
