I'm not getting any audio either, and I'm using Firefox too. I don't think
it's actually blocking the ads, but maybe the audio doesn't work if that's
your browser.

I tried and didn't come across any ads. I tried signing in and I tried
visiting just as a guest after I cleared the cookies. I use Firefox and
have not had any pop ups in a year at least. But still if this is going
to be an issue with my fellow quilters then I would like to know if you
guys find another free site that is easy to use.
Thanx

Same here Michelle. We only turn the speakers on when we have to hear some
thing.

I have noticed new pop-ups, but as I always surf with my speakers turned
off, I hadn't noticed the noise. Hmmm.

That's what I do, too, Dee.

Yeah, I don't like the distraction. I guess ignorance is bliss. ;-) HA!

Seriously, the speakers turned off system works well for me, but I don't
want anyone avoiding my webshots site because they are bombarded with
audio. Yikes!

Yes, They're annoying, but my computer has the capability to turn off the
sound! Seems like a simple solution to me.

Well, that shoots down my theory! I tried a couple of different Webshots
albums and had no problem, but I can't imagine why since everybody else is
getting those obnoxious ads.

I use Firefox, too, and the noisy ads are all too apparent. They started
up just a few days ago.

That only works if you aren't listening to music or a podcast while you look
at websites. It's not really that simple.
It's intrusive and very annoying. I have a lot of pictures on Webshots...I
may look into moving them somewhere else. I dread it, but I'll do it.

This evening I've been playing with Flickr. It's very easy to use, so
I'm going to put up some more stuff. (I sent a msg to Webshots asking
whether purchasing a premium membership will let people look at my
photos without those obnoxious ads. I don't think so, because they
were playing when I happened on a premium member's site.)

Heidi:

Your flickr site is shaping up really nicely! I spent an enjoyable session
looking at your pictures. Thank you for the update.

Thanks, Trixie! I was wondering whether that link would work for
viewers... And it is SO nice to be able to look at pics in silence!
