Yeah, you gotta install adblock. It really sucks from the perspective of an author, though, because combined with no allsteps, your projects wind up looking sooooooooooo terrible.
so.. are you saying if I install adblock, I won't be able to see a full page of Instructables?
No, sorry - if you install adblock, you will see Instructables with no ads. It's great! Instructables' ads suck, however, because most people don't have adblock and that and no allsteps make the projects look super sucky.
Yes. I'm not particularly concerned about depriving Autodesk, however. :p
As I understand things, Instructables is not providing an "income stream" to Autodesk, rather, the other way around (non-adblockers should have seen fewer of the borderline spam adverts since the merger).
I did notice that when my browser so feels I need to be logged off, it was getting a leeeettle bit annoying.
Sometimes I just log off just to increase ad views for Instructablees. It helps my self esteem.
