Ads


Not that I miss them, but are the ads gone for good. The sight looks so much better!

  I hope they're gone. It looks a million times better without them.

  Wow, definitely looks and feels better. Much more easier to browse others work and get inspired.

Thank you BetterPhoto!!!

  The pop-up is only in the 1st page of entries.... I won't miss the adds.

  I don't see a pop-up (have a pop-up blocker on my browser, though). Nice to not have to ignore the ads, though.

  Have to say that I don't mind the ads at all. Could see that it would be a source of revenue for BP, which is always a good thing for a business and for the site.

  This worked for me. We pay for this site (2X what I pay for Flickr, where there are no ads). If there must be ads, they should only be when not signed in.

  Thanks BP for listening! Besides threads on this topic, I imagine it was a common theme in the summer survey. The ability to turn off ads is a BIG improvement (and is better than using a blocker since the images fill the screen).

And thanks to Jeff Jensen for posting this info in another thread.

**********************
Yes! You can turn OFF ADS!
We are excited about this new feature!
Betterphoto members who are current and past students, Pro and Deluxe Website owners, current Basic photo gallery owners, and of course the Masterpiece membership group can all opt out of ad viewing from your
member center>member info tab>Gallery Ad Default area.

You can turn them on or off at the Gallery Ad Default area at any time. The default is ON (to view ads).

You MUST be signed in for the ads to Not to appear. Otherwise you will be viewing just like a random visitor and see the Google ads.

  Super wonderful! I'm so happy! To avoid having to sign in every time, I sign in and then go to whatever page I use a lot and save it to my favorites/bookmarks..That way I rarely have to sign in. Just go to my favorites tab and click on wherever I want to go, like recent contest entries and I show up as signed in (most of the time)
