Ok, so Lj has imported a "Snapfish" function.

When it was announced I opted out. Well, it seems that's only mostly effective. I was answering a post in ljgenie and there was my link, snapped.

Feh. In my f-list I don't see it. So I went to the community directly, and sure enough in the comments, all the links are snapped.

So far as I know, it's off; except that in that community (at least) the off is over-ridden.

Oh, *that's* why I was seeing "javascript blocked" icons in the corner of my screen... Grr. I'm tired of having to opt out of more and more things.

"Feh" is right. Now I need to find how to turn it off. (If I can't find the feature, I'll be back to ask where.)

[shekkara.livejournal.com]

Okay, found it and turned it off.

I also looked in the community that I manage and couldn't find any settings related to a snapfish function.

Apparently you can only turn it off in your own journal. So if you look at a journal from its own page, you're stuck with the awful things.

Unless:

A) You use the opt-out in the menu of the ugly little thing itself.
B) You block all javascript from snap.com

Ok, feeling like a moron.

I can't seem to figure out how to do that; because I hate snapfish.

Upper right-hand corner, there's an icon that looks like a gear. If you hover over it it becomes a menu, one item of which is "options". Under options is a "disable for all sites" ticky-box. Click that, then click save, then reload the page - it should be gone.

Utter failure. At their home page all I see is a green field. I suspect I've somehow blocked the button. When I try to open the help menu, all I get is blank page.

There are some oddities about visual objects on my machine. I don't see the adds for Salon, at all, which means I can't read most articles. Haloscan won't open for Orcinus, etc.

But I don't know where that little quirk is hiding. Perhaps this will motivate me to figure it out. I don't like the easiest way of doing that (disabling my plug-ins/extentions one at a time, and then reinstalling them).

If you're running Firefox, you can (I believe) also block it using adblocker.

Only if you are running adblocker (which I didn't care for, when I installed it).
