Those awful drop down pictures under the Mumsnet logo

I hate them. Over and over again they appear when I'm about to click on something else and I click just fractionally too late and find myself on the breastfeeding topic or something else which is of no interest to me at all any more, thank god. Can't you get rid of them? Apart from anything else I am sick to death of the images, which I have seen millions of times each now.

Rant over! Smile

Dawn both the drop-downs and the images. I see no need for the drop-downs anyway, why not just have a clickable thingy.

The images really are dreadful. After pregnant plaity woman and spaghetti dog come stupid rollers shaving woman and the glasses girl in terms of awfulness.

Yeah that fucking plaited pregnant woman gets shouted at most days by me hovering in my face when i am trying to read.

Oh thank god, kindred spirits. I hate those things with a bloody passion. Especially the pregnant woman with her "kooky" expression. I'm sick of accidentally rolling over the trigger and being faced with her.

The dog covered in pasta is the worst one.

Look, there's no need to sit on the fence - tell us what you really think! Grin

Seriously, though - is it the drop-down menus in general, or the images that are driving you up the wall?

I hate them too. They're redundant anyway as we can all click links and they're infuriating if you scroll too far by accident and get one. Then another.

The images are dreadful too, especially the pregnant woman and that bloody spaghetti dog.

Drives me mad as well. I've hated them ever since they were introduced.
