kudos:4 | FireFox icon.. Get rid of it! I paid premium to have no ads, and that is an ad. There should at least be an option to turn it off. |

*thumbs up to DSLR/BBR*
It's refreshing to see such a large community/site encourage the use of such great software!
I for one do not see it as an advertisement. I see it as education!

for me, I already know what firefox is, I Do not need to be told about it. It's a waste of bandwidth. |

It's a picture, it's advertising a product, it's an ad (I thought this was a positive option of being premium-no ads)

For YOU it's a waste of bandwidth, and it is for myself as well (Difference is, I see it as a positive thing). So why don't we clear EVERYTHING on the Internet that YOU know about, so we don't waste YOUR bandwidth 
I'm sure you have more important things to concern yourself with then a little button on the side of the website.

Opera can do many of the same things as FireFox, and is arguably better. I think we should replace or supplement it with an Opera icon.

I load the DSLR hundreds, maybe thousands of times a day sometimes.. given the image is cached 50% of the time.. multiply by a year, that's a lot of bandwidth.. Not very necessary. I also access this site on my cell phone which goes .25K/sec.. The text loads fine, but loading another 30K image every page would add a lot onto it.
And it's not even about the bandwidth, it's the fact that I ahve no ads selected, and it's still there. I should be able to turn it off. |

The site isn't responding anyway. Hopefully Justin gets paid by the click and the site isn't responding because everyone on DSLR/BBR is clicking the link.
So affiliate links are not allowed in posts, but ok here? Just kidding |

No different than any site you see with "best viewed with IE".
Not a bug. |
