Strong title, but a question to you all:
Those nice ads with changing pictures turn my energy sensitive LCD screen into a traffic light, ie the background changes intensity every time the picture changes. The first reaction I have is leave the page...not the intend of an add.
Anybody out there experiencing the same?

Harald,
I see the ads, they don't affect my display, maybe it's the new
Armorama display , there's a lot more white and the ads run only
down the right hand margin.
Must say I do like it.

Which ads do you mean? The left side ads that are animated?
Thanks,
Jim

Jim,
it's the "live resin" on the left that seems to cause the effect to my monitor, it changes very quickly from light to dark. My monitor reacts in adjusting the brightness of the screen at the same rate the ad changes pictures. The effect is an unreadable screen. The ones that change at a much lower rate cause some effect as well, but one doesn't notice because the rate of change is too low to notice...
And yes, I like this new setup as well, but maybe you can do something about those stroboscope ads

Hi Harald,
That actually uses Adobe Flash so it may be that is what is causing the issue. I will let the folks at Live Resin know though that it is causing that problem for some.
Best wishes,
Jim

Jim,
just played around with flash. It's just the change from light to dark that affect the display. In combination with an "energy sensitive" display anything that is big enough (this depends on your resolution) with a rate of change from light to dark of less than 2 seconds will get that monitor adapting its intensity to display white. The effect looks like a stroboscope...not pleasant.
Nothing to do with the method used, but the best practice would be to avoid intervals of less than 2 seconds...
Harald
PS I did end up ordering some live resin stuff...so I guess the ad worked after all, but in a slightly different way than intended;-)
