The banner specification
One file runs everywhere you book. Send it once your invoice is paid.
| Size | 1500 x 250 pixels, landscape. One size only, across the whole network. |
|---|---|
| File types | JPG, PNG or GIF. Animated GIFs run. |
| File size | Up to 2 MB. Under 200 KB loads fastest on a phone. |
| Colour | RGB. A CMYK file is converted and its colours can shift. |
| Animation | Plays as you send it. Three loops within 15 seconds reads best. |
| Words | Keep your main line at least 60 pixels tall in the artwork. On a phone the banner shows about 360 pixels wide, so small type disappears. |
| Safe area | Keep words and logos 40 pixels clear of every edge. |
| Link | One web address, starting https://. It opens in a new tab. |
| Where it runs | Directly below the article image and at the end of the article, on every article of all twelve magazines. |
| When to send it | After your invoice is paid. We email you how to send it then. |
| Checks | Every file is checked by its own contents. A file that only claims to be an image is refused, whatever its name. |
The 1500 x 250 frame
Design to the full frame, and keep everything that matters inside the dashed line.
The banner fills the width of the article column, so on a laptop it shows close to full size and on a phone it shrinks to about 360 pixels wide. Big words and one clear message read at both sizes.
Your logo and your main line sit inside the safe area, 40 pixels in from every edge. Colour and imagery can run to the edge.
Where your banner sits
The same file runs in both positions on every article of all twelve magazines.
