Introduction

The format consists of the following parts:

  • Initial 1010 (w) x 150 (h) stage;
  • Two Initial 180 (w) x 1000 (h) stages (left and right sides);
  • Floating 1440 (w) x 1030 (h) stage;
  • Video (optional).

User experience

A user opens the webpage and sees the 1010x150 top banner and two 180x1000 banners in the right and left sides. On click on banners, a floating stage appears that can offer additional video or other rich media experience. The banners accommodate a link to the predefined landing page. The ad maintains this size until the “Close” button top-right click. The ad expands as many times as the user clicks the 1010x150 or 180x1000 banners.
