Me too. I'm not bothering to come on so much because of them.
They give me a headache!!

I agree. Ads are ok and necessary but the ones that jump around drive me nuts and are off-putting.

Yes, I agree. It's the same garment in different colours. If we were interested we would go to their website and look. Wouldn't buy from them on principal.

I accept that adverts are a necessary way to fund a website and have no problem with that.
However, I find the continuous quick flick from one ad to another just to the right of the forums reading panel really distracting and annoying.
If anyone is epileptic I would have thought that they might be even more of an annoyance. Or is it me that's just being grumpy?
If there has to be a quick turnover of different adverts I think scrolling would be less irritating and distracting. Does anyone agree?
