Images. Looking at the new image feature, I have a question the pdf says in the side I can put up to 5 of these adverts. The info box for text allows 5 so would the image boxes be a continuous linked box of 250x250 ads or in separate 250x250 blocks each with rounded edges. The sponsor ads we know join up, I prefer the joined up so I can put in a 1250x250 pic as separate pieces. Or would we be able to get the ability like you have the icons using a single image, use a 1250x250 pick with multiple ads on it and like the icons set what section of that one pic shows in a block? I'm not sure what would load faster, but Telnic did choose the one pick with multiple icons, and used css to show what part of it shows in what web link/phone e.t.c The icons pic for reference is 1755x45. http://d0.webproxy.nic.tel/desktop/i...ault/icons.png http://dev.telnic.org/docs/advertisements.pdf Or am I wrong does "5 (2 .tia)" only mean 2 picks but up to 5 records? Or 5 each with up to 2 .tia each? which would make 10 picks .... lol |
Hi Bunjie, The new image ads, .tia as you rightly call them, are separate blocks. On the right, you can get up to 2 separated 250x250 adverts. These adverts count toward the 5 adverts maximum. So, if you already have 2 image ads, you can only have up to 3 text ads. Does this make sense? |

The new feature already appeared? I can't find it in my Dynadot's telhosting panel. There it is?[/size] |
The new image-based adverts are currently enabled only through SOAP APIs just like text adverts, so you won't see this functionality in your control panel at the moment. Later this year when the new interface is released, the adverts will be included in the .tel control panel. Meanwhile, you can use the APIs if you're a developer, or resort to a 3rd party service. Please also note that image-based adverts need to be enabled by your registrar, so some providers might take a bit longer to switch it on. For an example of what a banner ad looks like, please visit Justin.tel or Nadya.tel. The smartphone and PC browser adverts are different and click through to different locations. |
Is name.com a registrar allowing image ads please? Can somebody confirm? Can telnic provide a list of registrars? |
The announcement and necessity to act have been clearly communicated to all registrars, and many have confirmed they will enable the image ads first thing today, depending on their working hours. Perhaps, it's best to wait a day or so and try publishing an advert to see if it works. If the operation fails, contact your registrar to remind them. |
I didn´t understand so much the images ads. Now I have been in nadya.tel but it´s the same like allways. Tomorrow or aftertomorrow will be something different in your domain and I´ll see how is the image ads? libros camino del cid TDAH |
Tindaya, When you open my .tel on a computer browser or a smartphone, you should see a banner below my job title and above any contact information, announcing the mobile world congress in Barcelona. Do you see it? That's an image advert, a banner. |
It´s posible that it´s something wrong in my computer because now I see a little time your Adv, but after 2 secodns I don´t see the image (yes de link) But, now I understand the meaning, I have seen the ads of Mark , and I see his Advs perfet for example in www.cupids.tel libros TDAH camino del cid |
Before I didn´t see Barcelona........ ¡¡¡¡¡ WELCOME TO SPAIN !!!!!! good luck and enjoy Gaudi, the imagination of his work can inspire. tel domains libros TDAH camino del cid |
Nadya, Is the horizontal image ad only placed at the top or is it possible to place it below other pieces of contact info? And may you have more than one horizontal image ad? Steve ynp.tel |

clearly some registrars could care less... I need to move boracay.tel to take advantage of the very important image ads. (openSRS are obviously not implementing image ads). I have waited and nada zip nothing. text ads are fine, image ads are nowhere to be found. Dear Telnic, before I take this step to move a VERY heavily developed directory domain, can you enlighten me/members of any plans that you may be aware of for ENGLISH registrars who WILL be offering graphical template designs similar to telchina's??? I have other .tel domains that I will be moving away from openSRS that need renewing in a few weeks time. would appreciate any info prior to this bulk costly renewing. (who will be offering the graphical templates?) thank you[/size] |
Bulk Populate tool now supports tel ad insertion. New directive is "IA". Mark |
Mark, are your tools enabling "mobile" ad proxy placement as yet? Cheers |

No, we have no control over that - I think that will be enabled soon by Telnic?[/size] |
Mark, It's possible to place image ads on the mobile proxy now, they just have a different display preference (see page 4 and the example further on here -http://dev.telnic.org/docs/advertisements.pdf). You can see a live example of image ads om the smartphone proxy at Justin.tel. As stated by Nadya on another thread (http://www.telnic.org/forum/showpost...4&postcount=18), due to the restrictions on the size of the screen, you can only put image ads at the top and bottom of the smartphone proxy. As shown on Justin.tel and Nadya.tel, the smartphone and PC browser adverts can be different and click through to different locations to better suite each browser type. |

They won't show on my BlackBerry. BTW, both Quick Update and Bulk Populate now support mobile ads. Mark[/size] |
Just wanted to say a BIG thanks to Mark (kprobe) for updating his ad tool so quickly. both mobile and desktop image ads now working great. (mobile on iphone and ipod confirmed working well) |
Is anyone else unable to see the image ad for Mobile World Congress at the top of Justin.tel when viewing on a smartphone? Mark, are you able to see mobile ads on non-.tel sites on your Blackberry? I assume that you can see Justin's photo on there? Is it possible that either your phone or your carrier have a setting to block Ads? What model BlackBerry is it? |
as some of us are hoping to extend the functionality of .tel via the new image ads areas, can telnic please add the OPTION to open image ads links in the SAME window? (current implementation is opening in a completely seperate window) could we poll this? |
