    When you go to webpage, whether it be a commercial or personal site? What things annoy you? (ie: flash,animations etc?) :cool:

    Cheers

    Pop ups, pop unders, and ads that open up a new window are irritants. Fortunately, most of those get whacked by Firefox. Some dynamic html gets on my nerves, especially anything that fixes itself in the middle of my screen.

    Definately pop ups/pop unders.

    I also hate background music and silly 90's screen effects like snow.

    ..What were they thinking?:rolleyes:

    Counters. As if anyone wants to know how many hits they have had since it was installed. What's more, they usually read something like < 1000.

    For me besides flash, animated banners, and colors, most annoying is the inconsistent alignment and more then 3 fonts on the page.

    Pop Ups are the devil, however the most annoying thing to me is background music. I am not against all background music but usually the pages with music have horrible choice of music. Just my 2cents

    I have to agree with the "hit counter". The ones that are not less than 1000 are usually something ridiculous like 100,000,000, etc.

    My input on this is that I can not stand the scrolling text at the bottom of the browser. I see it mostly on templated real estate sites like mine (well, probably because that what I look at all day). But, I like to see the URL of what I'm about to click on in the bottom of my browser with a quick mouse over, not a sales pitch scrolling by...

    Background music and excessive graphics that make the page load up slowly.

    This is the reason that I loathe myspace, most everyone has a song on their page, a slidshow, perhaps an additional video, tons of graphics, etc.
