Hi Martha!   I tried it and didn't really like it, so I switched it off.  It was kind of cool, but distracting.  I'm sure in the right circumstance/use, it would look great.  I'll turn them on on this page and you tell me (please? :).   You may need to wait until 8:30pm (PDST) for it to be live at P2A.  Not all the banners at this page have a link to a website, so hover your mouse over several until you find a live one:

The "window" is really too small to read anything....  I'm interested in YOUR feedback.  

Snap can work on a P2 site. Personally, I find them on the irritating side. Others I'm sure like them.

How's that for a completely useless answer?

Wishy-washy!   But, I feel the same way.  I'm afraid that though viewers will mouse-hover over the subject and see the snap pop-up, they won't understand that they can then click and go to that subject's true website.

I can't beleive my site still has not updated from before 8pm....  Sure takes a long time, some times.

Phil, I looked at your page and I agree with you, distracting and way too small to read anything.

Martha, I personally wouldn't use it. Cool but distracting.

Folks, I try to think like a consumer - any consumer (because I am one).

Personally, I find those "snap shots" or whatever they're called extremely annoying and distracting.  As my mouse moves about the page, and it happens upon one of those "snap shots," it "pops up."  Just like those extremely annoying "pop-up" ads.  If I was surfin gyour site, I'd most likely leave and not return.

I don't - and won't - use them.

Martha - I am one who likes the Snap pop-ups since it conveniently shows the viewer a small photo of the local city websites I display on my homepage at http://www.ShowcaseYourHome.com

I posted instructions on how to do it on your P2 site back in February. Here is a link to that post (you will need to copy and paste it since I purposely split it into two lines due to its length):

Phil I didn't wait late enough for the pop ups, but tell me you're getting paid for all that advertising space. I'll go back later.   On sites that I have seen with the pop ups limited use looked ok.  Good Luck

Hi Klaus.

No, I turned it all off.  Just wasn't my cup of tea.  I'm sure under the right circumstances, I'd like it, and obviously, there are some/many that do.
