All About Vision® maintains a proprietary ad impression and click-through tracking system that will support your supplied GIF, JPG or Flash ad. See below for important details on Flash.

We are able to offer support for most third-party ad servers.  For details, please call.

Flash Ads

We accept Flash ads, subject to the following:

  • Please post your Flash ad on your own web page so that we may review for content and functionality.
     
  • Advertisers must supply Flash files in one of two ways:

    (1) .swf files with our tracking code already imbedded. Please contact us for your unique tracking code. You must do this even when using your own tracking code: Your Flash file should incorporate our tracking code, and your tracking code will be entered into our ad system.

    (2) .fla files, which we will use to generate output with our tracking code.
     

  • You must code your Flash ad to open a new window when clicked.
     
  • Please supply us with the dimensions of your ad.

Design Considerations

Ads with white backgrounds must use a border. If the ad has a background color other than white, a border is not required.

FTP Uploads

Advertisements can generally be emailed to us, but there may be occasions when it is more convenient to upload material via FTP.  Please use the following information:

  • Host address:  access-media.net
  • User name: Ads2007
  • Password: Ads2007

You will be automatically connected to a directory called "incoming," where you may upload your files.
