Yep, we’re talking about the BannerSnack referral program here.
How it works?
At least that’s what you can think of when you see a 300×600 px banner, also called “half page ad”. Yep, it’s the biggest of all the standard sizes. And yes, it is rarely used. Check this out (I know you already did):
Now the real challenge is to figure out whether:
a) advertisers have bigger budgets or
b) the advertising space got cheaper?
a), b), both, neither? What do you know about that?
Below you have three polls for three categories of features that might be added to BannerSnack. In order for us to decide which feature should we develop first, let us know which of them you want the most. Pick one for every category and click “Vote”.
Loading ... Loading ... Loading ...The introduction of SWF export feature has pleased many of you. However, odds are that a big part of you haven’t ever worked with SWF files before. And the biggest challenge is to embed them properly into a website.
That’s why we made this easy to use embed code generator that will help you compile the perfect* swf embed code:
Now that you can export the banners you created with BannerSnack to SWF files, you might want to play them independently of your browser. The first thing you can think of is to download Adobe Flash Player. But since you used BannerSnack, that means you already have the flash player installed. However Adobe Flash Player won’t solve your problem, as it still uses a browser to play SWF files, and you need a player that would play the SWFs independently, right?
Don’t search for “adobe swf player” as you will get this page. Dead end.
As you might have already noticed, BannerSnack launched the long-expected SWF export feature. That is, from now on you can download your banners to your hard drive and use them however you like and wherever you like.
Not to mention the multitude of opportunities that have just opened for advertisers and freelancers alike. I’m taking about the fact that most publishers and networks (or at least the big ones) only accept SWF files. From now on, this won’t be an issue for the banners made with BannerSnack.
The banner above was made with BannerSnack, exported to SWF and embedded the classical way:
Maybe you’ve noticed that BannerSnack was down for a few hours. Due to a “scheduled maintenance, and website update” it read.
You’re probably wondering what’s new on BannerSnack as a result of this update. Well, let’s see:
Since Valentine’s Day is about to knock at the door, I thought many of you would like to send a Valentine’s Day card to your loooved ones. Like this one below:
Replay.
Now I know the “lyrics” are not that inspired (I’ve took them from a shady website – even the saying might date back from the Dark Ages), so I invite you to change them. Just open the BannerSnack application (you need an account for that), go to public banners and search for “valentines”. You should easily find it.
However, if you don’t have much time for editing, you can send the banner above just the way it is. Click here to get it.
There’s no point in explaining why this flickering spammy banner is annoying and to be avoided. Note however the “Name” field. You’d think it’s an interactive banner. But no, it’s an ordinary GIF trying to deceive you.
The results of the poll are quite telling:
The SWF output feature is by far your most wanted feature. We are already working on it.
But SWF export is not the only feature that’s going to be implemented in the near future, templates and more fonts are knocking at the door.
We hope that will going to greatly improve your experience, dear BannerSnack users.
