- - Banner rotator (https://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=1013080)

I have been googeling for a banner rotator, and I find many, many. Too many, so I ask here: what to use on my TGPs? Any advice?

I use photoshop.

Open your banner and goto 'Image' in the top menu. From the drop down menu, select 'image rotation' and choose 180 degrees.

Your banner will now be rotated.

See?

I've posted this before. You might find it useful. It's very easy to set up and works just fine. Best of all it's free.

Thanks for sharing man.. Lol!! no sharing button here.. :D

Taking into consideration that ad blockers are blocking scripts and even normal banner sizes (as well as openx), you need to get creative on this one if you want your banners to show.

Thank you all! I will check out bot smart scripts and the free ones. For the pages that runs on my TGPX server edt. banner rotation is included and working fine, but all other sites need something fast and trackable.

thanks for the tip. lol

I wrote one years ago, it tallies impressions in a .txt file, so when the credit runs out it only displays the current paid up advertisers. Just start the counter high for your own banners.

Not as reliable updating as SQL so just backup the rotator.txt file now and then.

This is my rotator.txt file, this goes in directory rotator with the banners.

CREDITS BANNER URL

If you try it out let me know how it goes.

Just rename the folder and don't use javascript to load the ads.... I have all the blockers loaded, and all ads on my sites load perfectly fine, other than google or something like that, but all my openx ones.

Anyway.... I use openx.

My ad blocker is also blocking just standard banner sizes, but if I offset them by a pixel, they will show.

Have you installed the blocker database that comes with it? It's huge, blocks lots of words and sizes. Just the mention of "openx" will block an ad when I turn it on.

Please shoot me a email if you don't want to divulge in public.

Outside of that I rename the openx folder, to whatever.. and if I want to get picky, in the admin settings area is a place to change script names, you can change the click tracking script name to something else... that's if someone put in a custom filter though.

That should take care of any openx filters that normally hit. I haven't changed db's that I'm aware of, I'll have to check them out. But I have tried just about every plugin/extension that the various browsers offer, just to make sure the ads come up... and other then google type ads/js and flash, everything so far has worked with the above setup.
