Yes this stomach ad has been driving me insane!

Ugh, I agree! I was just glaring at it before I scrolled down to see it in your comment... this one (and others just like it) is on a whole bunch of websites, actually, and I'm sick of seeing it. I was extra sad to see it on craftster, how does fake diet tips help me craft?

Hey all!

I'm a really big fan of craftster, I think that it's a great place for people to share ideas and show off their talents. But one thing is bothering me right now. There's this big ad in the upper right corner of my screen about weight loss! It's one of those nasty scam ads showing pictures of a flabby belly and then a freakishly skinny one, saying "Lose 25 pounds of belly fat in 3 weeks." I'm sorry that sort of change shown in the pictures is maybe possible in like 6 months with a lot of work. I really hate seeing those ads on other websites, and I've always appreciated how unobtrusive the ads on craftster are. I understand that ads are probably one of the biggest things that keeps websites like this running, but it seems  to make more sense when there are ads from other crafty websites. Anyways, that's all I have to say, just thought I'd share it.

We've reported the two we've seen and they should be getting fixed now.

I'm going to merge this with our regular ad thread.
