UI template: 3D Box vertical

Preview

The ad format has a form of a rectangular parallelepiped with four visible faces (front, left, right, back) any of which can offer video. On the initial visit, an ad automatically spins around in a side Premium ad unit space. 3D Box can spin automatically or manually with the help of rotating buttons. The background color for the buttons can be chosen from the user interface. If the banner initially rotated automatically, then it won’t anymore if the user rotates it manually. Standard sizes: 300×250, 300х600, 240х400.

This ad format may be subject to restrictions imposed by Google in cooperation with the Coalition for Better Ads on delivery of ads in Chrome. A list of ad experiences that should be avoided in this ad format according to Initial Better Ads Standards:

Chrome will limit the resources a display ad can use before the user interacts with the ad by removing heavy creatives from the page. An ad is considered heavy if the user has not interacted with it (for example, has not tapped or clicked it) and it meets any of the following criteria:
– Uses the main thread for more than 60 seconds in total
– Uses the main thread for more than 15 seconds in any 30-second window
– Uses more than 4 megabytes of network bandwidth
For any questions regarding ad manuals please contact the support manager of your account.
