One way to stop ads detracting from Herald’s media player

By Julie Starr | Published: January 8, 2008

I realise now that nzherald.co.nz is selling more than one ad per slide show. Sorry to be a spoilsport, but it's distracting, so I'm just pulling the player further down my screen so the ads are tucked away out of sight below my toolbar.

Herald makes good use of readers’ fire pics

By Julie Starr | Published: January 8, 2008

Nice to see nzherald.co.nz inviting readers to send in pics on the fire story. I like the slide show player as well, although the ad at the bottom reloading for each shot is a distraction that detracts somewhat.
