How can we improve we7?

Remove Pop-up Adverts

it means I can't immediately pause the music if my boss comes in! I don't mind aural adverts, or even the video ads, but the ones that pop-up and stop you actually working the website til it's closed are super annoying...

    We prefer ads that don’t interfere with the UI but sometimes the advertisers only have ads that will do that. I will see if its possible for us to still have a pause button when they are up.

        Daisy that is why i left them for nearly 3 years too many ads youtube is better there ads only come up every like 20th song/video. whereas WE7 have ads every 5 songs it get annoying and people will end up leaving WE7.

        just get rid off them completly it uses too much internet access and it saves the computer/laptop from crashing from a RAM over usage. if that happens at work or at school or at home it would cause major problems if people are in the middle of a presentaion (creating), or doing their school work it would be better just to get rid of them and save the RAM from getting over used. RAM over usage also leads to the computer crashing more often and more chance that they will have to download software to speed the computer up which in the end actually slows the computer down. so it would be a lot easier to either get rid of them or just make them shorter or just make a slide show that still advertises the items, this would use the same amount of RAM as the Microsoft PowerPoint slideshows which is an increase to RAM usage of 6.7% which is practically nothing compared to most programs. this will save most computers from crashing apart from the slowest and oldest but then people can buy new once if they want to get WE7 on their laptops.

        thank you for reading this,

        :O Nooo don't get rid of them! If you're working in another tab/window you can't even see them :D

        Why don't you just turn the sound off when your boss comes in?
