[F.A.Q] - Banner Maker

> Why charge for the banners?

- The Flash banners that we offer have been created by professionals. We think that a quality banner that costs the same price as a croissant is not an unreasonable rate.
- In comparison, a banner designed by a freelance graphic artist or a web agency could cost you anywhere from 20 to 50 times more!
- Our Flash banners will individualize your site and allow you to communicate more effectively!

> Why are they so cheap? Are you trying to hide something?

- Not at all! That is the very aim of this site: to allow everyone (small webmasters or PME/PMI) to benefit from professional results at an unbelievably affordable rate!
- Furthermore, the novelty of our site is the speed. Anyone can personalize their Flash banner with no prior knowledge of software in under 5 minutes!
- Finally, the fact that you can download your banner immediately after having paid for it means that our system is revolutionizing the world of multimedia communication! However, there is a small wait between placing your order and receiving your product.

> How do I pay?

- The process is quite straightforward: you personalize your banner until you are satisfied with it and when you download it, you will come to a secure SSL 128 bit page (the closed padlock icon at the bottom of your navigator confirms this). You just have to enter your debit or credit card number at this point and the amount indicated (no hidden charges!).

> What is SSL 128 bit protection?

- It is the highest level of security available on the Internet: all of the personal information that we receive is encoded and only the banks concerned are able to decode them.

- An important network of powerful computers working non-stop for several weeks is required in order to break a SSL 128 bit code key. Nowadays, no "pirate" can make use of this kind of system and no SSL 128 bit key has ever been decoded.

- Moreover, this system has been forbidden by public powers for some time, since it is a way of transferring information that cannot be intercepted. This includes the security services of the jurisdiction. Your information can therefore be securely transferred over the Internet.

> How do I know that my bank details are secure when I buy online?

- Many people fear that their bank details will be intercepted and therefore have yet to buy something online. Yet all the same, each well-known company's site is able to guarantee a secure method of payment as they use a special system that encodes your personal information (name, address, bank details…) as soon as you enter them.
As a result, it is impossible to read this information when it is being transferred over the Internet.

- When you are in secure mode on a web page, a closed padlock appears in the bottom right-hand corner of your Explorer navigator.

> What is the difference between a standard banner and a news banner?

- Everyone knows that the aim of today's so-called "standard" banners is to promote other web sites and/or products. However, a new banner of a different kind has recently appeared on the scene: the "news" banner.

- These banners are generally used to promote one's own web site and its new features. As implied by the name, these banners contain new features and updates for your own site. The main advantage is their ability to attract and hold the visitor's attention more than a simple paragraph of text. This type of banner consequently requires regular updates (daily, weekly or monthly), which is why our low rates play such a vital role here.

> Which files do I retrieve during my final download?

- Once you are on the download page, you will receive a compressed "zip" file (which can be decompressed with WinZip software) containing different files:

• Your personalized Flash banners with a "swf" extension unique to this software
• An HTML page for each banner
• Your invoice

>Are the banners easy to install on my site?

- Everything is clearly explained on the download page, but a Flash file is basically no harder to put on your web page than a simple image!

>What is the likelihood of seeing the same banner as mine on another site?

- It is highly unlikely, indeed impossible that this will happen due to the vast number of possible combinations as a result of being able to personalize your own banners...

- The very advantage of our system is that you can personalize our products to fit your site's image, which for example, is not the case when you download a "graphic kit". Therefore, even if several people buy the same type of banner as you, you can rest assured that yours will be "unique" every time as you personalized them!

- Furthermore, the chances of finding the same banner as yours are next to nothing. In order for this to happen, each of the following parameters would have to be identical: font, size, color, speed, messages, adjustments...

>What do I need to do to install my banner?

- In the order summary, you will have an HTML page containing the HTML code to be inserted in your pages to ensure that your banner is displayed correctly. The code always appears in the following format:

<object classid="clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000"codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/ flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,29,0" width="468" height="60"><param name="movie" value="tmpl019_3400b0de2c3519.swf"><param name="quality" value="high"><embed src="tmpl019_3400b0de2c3519.swf" quality="high" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="468" height="60"> </embed></object>

- The size of your banner appears in red (in the case of skyscraper, change this size to width="120" height="600").
- The name of your Flash banner followed by the "swf" extension (not to be deleted) appears in blue.
You can modify the name of your Flash banner. If you choose to rename it, remember to change its name in the blue HTML code.
Example: if you rename your banner "myban", it will become "myban.swf" in the blue code.

- If you put your banner in a file other than your HTML page, remember to change the blue HTML code and adapt it according to where you save your banner.
Example 2 : if you decide to put your Flash banner in file called "banners" on your site, change the blue HTML code as shown below:
http://www.YOURSITE.com/YOURFILE/NAMEOFYOURBAN.swf
which in this case would be:
http://www.YOURSITE.com/banner/myban.swf
