The subtile tilting of the example ad is slightly dizzying.


Wow... you're right. I saw your comment and is like "what's this asshat complaining about now"

I went there and moved my eyes around the example ad and immediately got vertigo and my stomach turned.

Possibly it's from the dots...?


I think it's that it's just subtile enough that you question if it's moving at all, and that disagreement between expectation and observation creates a sense of unease.


Agreed. If you're going to start an ad business today, it should feel the least amount "sleazy," gimmicky? as possible. In case that was done on purpose to get more of your attention, that is.


I thought I was having a serious neurological issue for minute there. Maybe don't make your product make prospective users nauseous, eh?


Never noticed that while coding the frontend xD I will change the animation to something else. Maybe a little bounce. Haha


+1, instantly felt unsettling in my stomach.


I noticed something off about that ad too.
