UI template: Cube
The ad format consists of 6 alternating stages any of which can offer video. On the initial visit the ad automatically spins around in an ad unit space in the horizontal plane. On mouseover, the cube leaves its place and starts spinning showing all six faces. The user can interact with the banner using the navigation controls – stop/play button, up/down and left/right arrows, or speeding it up with the mouse cursor. When you move click the Close button, the cube returns to its initial place.
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:
· autoplaying video ad with sound.
· autoplaying video ad with sound.

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
– 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
