Article Topics: Ad Tools

The Image Banners Ad Tool type lets you upload any image banner of your choosing in order to help affiliates promote your site. After uploading an image banner of your choosing to NATS, your affiliates will then be able to grab the banner with a corresponding linkcode in order to attract more surfers to your site.

Uploading an Image Banner

You can upload a new image to be used as an Image Banner through the Ad Tools Admin. There are a number of ways to do this. The simplest way is to navigate to the Ad Tools Admin, go to the "Banners" Ad Tool category, and click the "+" button next to the "Image Banners" Ad Tool type.

On the "Add New Ad Tool" page, use the available "Banner" field to add the banner image you want to use; you can upload a file from your hard drive, or input an image URL in this field.

Once you have selected an image to use as your new Image Banner, you can define the other available settings for your banner. These settings include:

• Alt Text - Defines the text that will be shown when mousing over the banner.

• Type - Choose whether the banner is a static (still) image, or animated.

• Enabled on - Choose what sites you want the banner to be enabled for.

• Publish Date - Input what date you want the banner to be available from.

• Default Group - Select an Ad Tool group to categorize the banner under.

Once you have defined all of the available fields, click "Add Ad Tool" to add your new Image banner to NATS.

Your new image banner will now be displayed in the "Image Banners Ad Tool" asset list, along with the other available image banners. This table provides you with a preview of your banner, the banner ID number, your selected Alt Text, the banner type, and its default group.
