I like to integrate a story into the banner or ad.

For example check out these two banners displays that I use to promote two different animated features on my site:

When an affiliate has a site that has a personality attached then we customize those toons to say "Joe Presents" and then it makes the surfer feel like the site owner hawking the affiliate knows the affiliate. A quality site associated to more quality. Gives that personal touch. Plus people come back again and again.

Toons are the one medium where I could see where banners might be the better option that text. because toons have have wildly different loks depending on the creator of the toons I imagine a s visual representation would translate and convert better because they see the stylke up front rather than create an impression in the mind which can ultimately lead to dissappointment if they go to the site and the style is diufferent than they thought it would be.
