Block distracting web page elements | |
A desktop widget similar to the “AutoShape rectangle” that would float on top of your browser and could be grabbed, moved and re-sized to cover annoying or distracting (blinking/flashing) web page elements. It would have the usual “minimize” “restore” and “close” boxes in the upper right hand corner.

This sounds like it could be done pretty easily. |

I wish I had it for my TV, too (use remote to position it). This would cover the animated "brands", spoiler headline crawls, ugly people's faces, etc. while I'm watching. |

Yes, please! Block those dancing gif files, or whatever they are. |

Welcome to the halfbakery. |

Adblock Plus for Firefox does this, you can block or unblock any frame or image you want, although it doesn't use a rectangle select kind of interface. |

I like it, it would keep you from accidental mouseovers. |
