    I hit upon this banner network a while ago...Its purely for gaming related sites and seems pretty professionally run.

    Wondering if there are any gaming related webmasters with experiences to report using this network....in terms of CTR rate etc.

    Please post anything you think relevant.

    http://www.gamesbanner.net/

    Also anyone know of a gaming related banner network that supports full sized banners.

    The site seems crazy slow to load. How are the times for the banners to load on the sites? I'd hate to slow down my site too much to just display a banner.

    Its still a bit patchy for me...but it loads more often than not..and when it does load it usually does so straight away. Mind you it doesnt help that my site has all these small little images and thumbnails.

    Nerz I noticed it doesn't display Banners on your site just a *Link* to GamesBanners & your ID??... The link works correctly I was wondering why it's not displaying any Banners for other sites...

    Cause loading the image keeps timing out...sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt. Check it gamesbanner.net...the site is down atm..so id say there having issues as well. Hope they get it sorted over the next few days.

    Looks like it is sorted out to a large extent...There front page is light years quicker as well...Good Stuff!

    Something i noticed though in the admin section might summarize the display problems people were having:

    Site Statistics.

    Date | Clicks | Views | CTR
    6 March 2006 11 538 2.04

    Banner Statistics

    Date | Clicks | Views | CTR
    6 March 2006 0 0 0

    So even while the pictures were down i still got hits which is all good...It looks like there sorting out the problems pretty quick. Be interested to see this next days worth of data.

    My site is pretty new so i wouldnt be getting many views anywayz.

    Well on my end the Home page is still sluggish and a Banner *Almost* showed up on your site then disappeared and the link was back...

    I doubt I will be trying them anytime soon...
