IMAGES

[Col_T]

Since the latest upgrade, there is an images frame at the top of the main page.

 

Is there an option whereby I can hide these - they take up space, are a distraction and, currently, are all attributed to  DarrenAldridgeBoatFitters so could be construed as advertising, not something I would want to see and, I think, in breach of forums rules.

 

Thanks in advance, and congratulations on getting the last upgrade resolved so successfully - a great improvement.

Its annoying but only shows up on desktop and I think most people use mobile here.

They don't show up on my desktop unless I click on the gallery button

At least at one point before there have been pictures, or videos on the main screen of the desktop version. They never changed from week to week. A bit pointless.

I only use a desktop and i find the images very annoying plus the advertising as well.

No images either on my android fone or on my chromebook.

This is definitely something that only affects the desktop version of the site.

 

Using Chrome on my PC they are there (On the forum home page no where else)

 

Using Chrome on my Samsung Tablet they are not, however if I switch to 'use desktop version of this site' on my tablet they appear.

 

Yes that are bluddy annoying (as nice as the work is)

I'm using a browser addon to block it (uBlock Origin). I couldn't find an option on the site itself.

I use an Ad Blocker (Adblock plus)  and on no page on CWDF does it indicate that it is blocking anything.  I would suggest that the ads are nothing to do with CWDF but an outside intrusion such as a PUP (potentially unwanted program).  Malwarebytes or similar gets rid of these.

No images on my laptop using Chrome.   EDIT.  I am talking about the home page.
