Etsy is Placing THEIR Search Link buttons at the end of your listing photos

[#1]

Have you noticed that Etsy has now placed their search link buttons at the end of your listing photos? Did anyone ask you if they could do this? I did not receive notification about this new procedure and frankly I see it as an invasion of privacy. The search buttons will directly send potential customers of yours off in a million directions which, IMO, will confuse people and they will leave without purchasing anything.  

Please reply if you have any information about this "NEW" mandatory issue

There's an optimistic spin : - D

It doesn't matter how many pics you have in your listing. On my site, even with 10 photos, there was the black box.  Wouldn't it be nice if we were told what they were doing? If you make enough people mad they will leave. If there are no sellers then there are no buyers.  In the early days of Etsy it was a nice better. They supported the sellers. Then they bring in someone from eBay and pattern Etsy after eBay. I was on eBay for a long time but finally left after I got tired of them only supporting the buyers and the sellers got no help or support. Nothing.  Now it is liked that on Etsy. Bad Move.
