When does a star membership kick in?

I just renewed my star membership and I still have ads. Does it take a day or two?

Make sure when you log in to select “remain logged on this computer”. The ads should go away.

The ads just went away....so it took about 40 minutes. They must be busy today what with all the heart purchases.

Then click on the tab that says Star Membership. That will tell you when your Star Membership starts and when it expires.

Kick in to the DU tip jar?

This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.

As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
