Default Feeling dizzy

At the top of the page is a person using a potter's wheel and it's been there for some time. Beautiful work but that spinning makes me dizzy every time I flip to the next posting. Since it's been there for some time, can we please have something different there?

I don't have that at the top of my page. The ads are geared to searches that have been made on the laptop or PC that you are working on. Mine have things about quilting, Oils for health (something I am researching and learning about now) and some Ebay stuff I have looked up online.

Perhaps your answer is to search for several different things and see if the ad changes. Good luck

I use Firefox and the free AdBlock Plus. I don't get any ads.

I don't get ads--you might want to Google "Ad Block Plus" and hit the download button. It is that simple--no more dizzy!!

Thanks, Mermaid and QuiltnNan. We have "Ad -Blocker," and have had some pop ups on here lately. Will try the one you suggested.

You definitely need some kind of ad blocker. Depends on your browser, which one.

If the OP is on an iOS device (iPad, iPhone, etc), that will be a lot harder to do. It's why I won't surf on either if I'm home. It's just to annoying to have popups and ads all the time and the QB is one of the hardest sites to take because of it.

Yes, I do too. It is heaven after using Internet Explorer!
