Rocketry Planet

There are many advertising opportunities on Rocketry Planet. The most widely used and accepted form of advertising is with banner ads. It the site's current configuration, there are four "zones" for banner placement. Those zones, TOP, LEFT, RIGHT & BOTTOM are laid out in the graphic below:

1. TOP position:
   Banners that run in the TOP position are 468 pixels wide by 60 pixels high. As an advertiser, you can target specific ads and place them in specific sections.
2. LEFT & RIGHT positions:
   Banners that run along the LEFT or RIGHT positions are 160 pixels wide by any height dimension, although industry standard sizes range from 90 pixels in height to 600 pixels. The tab marked "A" indicates the entire area in which SIDE ads can be placed. Ads can be stacked for multiple placements along the same zone. Obviously a LEFT or RIGHT banner that is 180 pixels high takes the space of two 90 pixel high banners and would be priced accordingly, but it gives the advertiser control over the zone on that section of the site. The LEFT and RIGHT positions are not available for the Forum or Auction sections.  Some pages do not show LEFT positions as being available, but in most all situations except the Forums and Auctions, the LEFT position can be added.
3. BOTTOM position:
   Banners that run in most positions of the BOTTOM position are 468 pixels wide by 60 pixels high.
