Subject to our Content Guidelines, we accept the following ad banner sizes:

Full Banner (468x60), Full Banner with Vertical Navigation Bar (392 x 72 Pixels), Half Banner (234 x 60 Pixels), Vertical Banner (120 x 240 Pixels), Button 1 (120 x 90 Pixels), Button 2 (120 x 60 Pixels), Square Button (125 x 125 Pixels), and Micro Button (88 x 31 Pixels).

• We accept gif and gif89 (animated gif) banners. We also allow the ad to cycle/flash continuously or as many times as the ad creator wants, as long as they keep the byte count under 10K.
• CGI Script ads: We can run them as long as they work in our pages, and provided the load on our server is reasonable. We do need two weeks lead time.
• JavaScript ads: We can run them as long as they work in our pages. We do need one week lead time.
• We can run HTML ads as long as they work in our pages. We need one week lead time.
• We do not record click-throughs.
• We do not run Java ads, or ads with Shockwave, audio or other plugins. Our concern is that they work with too few browsers at this time, they present stability issues, or users may not have appropriate plug-ins installed, and we do not wish to disappoint or frustrate our customer base.
• We are quite willing to TRY most things. If the agency or advertiser wants to try out something new, we will certainly attempt to accommodate their request. As the Internet evolves, we expect to add technologies as they are proven and penetrate our customer base.

Note:
Animated gifs are available within the standard ad sizes outlined here.

We strongly recommend that all ads be no more than 7k in byte size for optimum page performance. No ads will be accepted over 10k in total byte size. Please check with your advertising sales representative as not all sizes are available on all sections of the service at this time.
