Annoying ad on front page

[Tanja]

<p>Why is there an add that covers the user login. It just re-appears all of the time?</p><div></div>

<p>Well, I'm not seeing it... but check the fine print at the <em>very</em> bottom of the page... you should see a text "sign in" link, right down there near the site's copyright line, etc.</p>

<p>You can also use the "My workspace" link to sign in. The ad was, as I understand, the argreement with Adorama and PN, but at least it's only on the home page, not all pages like before. If you widen your browser window just enough, you'll see the sign in stays put and the ad moves to its right. It's the reality of things here, and at least they don't have dancin' bears running across the navigation bar or a little helper icon asking, "So where would you like to go?"</p>

<p>Ya I have it too. I just had firefox remember my user name and password so I don't have to enter it in and can just press the sign in button. Or you can hit the Sign In button 4 or 5 times and the banner will go away.</p>

<p>Can someone show me a screenshot of the ad covering up the sign in button? Not just of the ad, but of the photo.net page with the ad on it.</p>

<p>I am not sure if the pixel dimensions are right as I"m not sure how to do it in paint! but here is my screenshot.</p><div></div>

<p>And I noticed that even having firefox remember my username and password it doesn't automatically show up like I assumed it would. I still have to start typing in my user name, to then have the password show up. So I still have to hit the sign in button many times to have the banner be removed. It is just in the most inconvenient place, which I'm assuming is why it's there, even if it tarnishes the users experience.</p>

<p>Thanks Desarie.</p>

<p>Can someone tell me the exact URL of the page this is appearing on? Is it http://www.photo.net/register/ or is it http://www.photo.net/register/?return_url=%2findex%2eadp or something else....</p>

<p>I can't make the ad appear for me and I'm trying to track down the info I need to check on it.</p>

[joshroot]

<p>Nevermind, I got it to happen. I will see what I can do.</p>

<p>I succeeded after 20 times to log in, tried using Tools->Options->Load Images Automatically (deseleting it) and reloading the page. Yesterday I couldnt log in for the second time...I thought it was only my browsers fault or sth...its a bit a matter of luck...I hope it will vanish when I sign in next time...</p>
