    When did they appear and can they be eliminated?

    We have just recently implemented this new advertising campaign.

    While the ads cannot be closed or moved, you might want to try viewing your map in full screen mode.  The link to this is located just to the left of the map under the "Map Settings" section.  While this won't remove the ad, it will result in the ad covering a smaller percentage of your map.

    I'm sorry, but what a terrible advertising campaign. Is it really effective advertising to essentially piss off your target group by making it harder for them to do what they came here for? It would be fine if you could close or move the pop-up, but why do I have to go out of my way to change my map settings in order to be able to fully use the map? This is really, really irritating. I understand that you need advertising to support the site, but please reconsider this ad campaign, or at least find a way to make it less intrusive.
