Hi,

Could we please not use this kind of pop-up (pictured in the below screenshot). Personally, it has never once made me want to sign up for whatever the pop-up is advertising; rather, these pop-ups tend to drive me away from the website, as they are invasive and they can easily break my train of thought while I am reading the webpage on which they appear. Screenshot of pop-up I am talking about:

I wish... but now that Future, US Inc. owns these sites, they use this type of annoying pop up on all of their other sites too. I always end up using the AdBlockPlus feature of blocking elements to kill those off. I'm with ya, but if you look at all of Future's sites - they all do this crap.
