Pop-up advertising on Forum posts

I may be wrong David, it only seems to do it intermtted. Could be a problem with my PC screen size settings.
Cheers

It happens to me also....sometimes it follows the page down but I havnt seen it for a week or two now

George - the advertising is designed to fit within a specific space on the page and most definatley should not encroach or obscure photos or text. They are not "pop ups". Please send David an email with screen snap shots if it continues but it does sound like a problem with your browser. We haven't seen or heard of this issue before. I can advise that there are some ads that are designed to expand on roll-over events - ie. if you move your mouse over the area of the advert, it will automatically expand over the page but will automatically shrink again if you move your mouse off it. I think there is only one creative running currently like this. We weren't too happy about accepting these ads but Nissan and the other big companies that have agencies handling their bookings say they are industry standard and in lieu of less than 2000 members paying subscriptions, we cannot afford to refuse their ads!

If anyone else agrees that they'd prefer the Forum without the ads, then please do your bit and contribute financially to the site in the following ways:

- use the Activity Booking section
- use our Shop
- become a Member (personal or business)
- use the display Trader ads to list your stuff for sale

Hope you appreciate our position and please let us know if there are any ongoing glitches by sending specific details to David via email. Thanks, MM

There is no "Pop-Up" advertising on this site to my knowledge??

If you are referring to the fixed box advert to the right then Gone Bush has answered the question above.

Totally agree its a pain in the ass it happens to me on a regular basis but then I'm not a member as yet so guess I dont count.

George,

I understand that you can now turn the ad off and this will solve the problem however I do know of this problem (Michelle was un aware when she replied). I know what causes it and will work to fix it for user that cannot suppress the ad. It is actually a small bug that occured when I made one of the significant perfomance fixing problems a few weeks back and will only effect threads that have large (byte size) images in the original thread question - (hence it is not a huge issue but can be a pain) - I know how to fix it and will install this fix in the next day or so.

David
