Default Re: Big Websites Start Running Bigger Display Ads.

The default setting for graphics on most new PC's seems to be set at 1024X768 these days. The problem is 90% of the people buying new PC's never bother to change their screen resolution. The ad sizes that Gonzo published above show that the advertisers are mainly considering that fairly standard screen resolution.

I don't believe the size of the ad is going to do much for the advertiser, other than piss people off. It's the quality of the ad that will have to change and I see even more use of Flash/etc. for online mini-commercials. Larger companies are soon going to be producing "web commercials" that will equal those on television...high quality and high bucks.
