Option to disable annoying banner on homepage.

Just something to add: If you use AdBlock, the banner won't show up. I didn't even know the banner was there until I disabled it.
I thought that too, but when I re-enabled AdBlock it didn't go away. Now I've manually added it to the block list.

Support, I thought I saw a dismissing button…

(I have a few things to say about the tutorial for it though…)

It would be great if there would be an option to disable the annoying “Make it Fly!” banner on the homepage. I would be OK with the banner, if it didn't have Power Girls (or whatever it's called) on it.
EDIT: Some people cannot see the banner yet, if you can't, try restarting your internet router and your internet browser.
That's just your opinion. Some people like it. No support.

Hello! This is suggesting to have an option to disable it, not remove it.
Please read the suggestion before posting. Also, read the sticky: A guide to constructive replies

NOTE: I have installed a user script to make this banner disappear. If it changes, or gets an option to disable it please tell me!

I didn't see the ‘option’ part at first.
Changing stance to support.

I do think that there should be an option to disable the banner. It was good at first, but it does get annoying eventually.

For anybody looking for a temporary solution I have made a Chrome Extension: https://github.com/TheGrits/NoBanner

Support.

I only see this banner when visiting https://staging.scratch.mit.edu/

If there isn't one already, I'd like a “Dismiss” button to appear to the side of the banner, that will get stored in the database when you click it, so that particular banner won't appear next time you visit the home page. So support for that, but not the removal of the banner completely, though I don't see that banner on scratch.mit.edu so I don't mind it (for me) being only on staging.

It works now, thanks (sorta) !

I'll add this to my growing Scratch userscript. So support for an option to make it go away

It looks like the ST will have banners for more things in the future, like SDSes. Support to be able to dismiss the banner, which will make it disappear until they change it.
Support for this

I liked the April Fool's method better; replacing the Scratch News box with the banner, and maybe with an additional “see more” button taking you to the previous updates (maybe on the old News page)

Infinitely support. FYI there is no dismissal method and it's annoying to just make an untitled project to dismiss it.
Also, it's a ad. If we look at Google's definition; it's a ad. It is a banner that publicizes CN's collab. Ads was previously banished from the site but I wonder what got the ST to not think this way?
BTW, I also support the following idea below:
