    Advertisements are fine, but the flashing ones are very distracting and really detract from this forum. Admin????
    I especially hate the ones with bugs!!

    I haven't noticed them either, but I'm pretty good at blocking out all the non-board stuff while I'm here. We do need the advertisers to keep this great site going, so if they want to flash, it's OK by me.

    What about those that the avatar is moving like some animal.
    That is irritating to me.

    I don't let it bother me one way or the other. Goodness if that was my only annoyance or gripe, I would have it made in the shade.LOL I also figure they help pay for this wonderful site we have. I can & will live with them. LOL

    I don't get the flashing ads. I have firefox so I guess that must block the ads.

    Personally I don't mind the moving things in peoples posts. I really don't like advertisements and the flashing ones are the worst but I think that quite possible selling advertizing space is what keeps this a free forum. Am I correct in assuming that or just computer illiterate?
