...please kill it yesterday if not sooner. It is an afront to all that is good about AI. Please, find a better banner to make your money with. This one sucks beyond any words that I can convey.

Who else is with me on this one??
Didn't see that one..
but you know you can switch off the flashing if it bothers you...Moogs
On IE just disable animated gif's and also don't allow java...
i just wonder who the hell clicks on those things to begin with that the creators actually target... are they the ignorant mouth-breathers who open every outlook attachment they read? all it makes me want to do is "change the channel," so to speak.

I sometimes click on banner ads if I want to support the site. And come to think of it, I have a cold right now and breathe through my mouth most of the time. Hmm...
Turning off animation is not the right solution to demon-spawn ad banners.
Getting rid of the crappy banners and finding some that don't completely distract you from what you're reading is the right solution. Also, I am not a big fan of ads that promote seizure-like tendancies either.

that's not what i meant. i mean, who clicks on these banners that are intentionally trying to be so obtrusive and so annoying in their delivery?
sure, i will click on a banner, too, but i will NOT support asshole sponsors like this. i don't care if they are an AI supporter. that kind of advertising should not be promoted into a statistic like "people are 400% more likely to click on a banner that screams at them with lots of blinking complimentary colors and offers a "click the monkey" contest."
Seriously that thing is pissing me off. Couldn't the banner makers be any more creative?
<bitter laid-off graphic designer rant>No. Because they LAID OFF all the graphic designers. The secretary's making them now...</bitter laid-off graphic designer rant>
