Special guidelines for Flash

ArchitectureAU recommends that most advertisers submit creative in JPG, PNG, or animated GIF.

Agency clients and other advertisers confident with 3rd-party tags and Flash are also able to submit creative in either of these formats.

ArchitectureAU uses Google’s DFP platform for ad serving. Any creative or tags tailored to this platform will function correctly.

For more specific instructions, please see Google’s notes on proper clickTAG implementation  .

Flash ads should also be accompanied by a fallback image in JPG, PNG, or animated GIF for viewing on iOS and other platforms that do not support Flash.

Please note that we are not able to assist you with correct coding of your ad, and that noncompliant Flash creative will be returned to you for rectification. If you are not confident of your ability to produce compliant creative in the Flash format, we suggest you submit your ad in JPG, PNG, or animated GIF.
