    Hi,
    I am about to order banner designs for my promotion campaign using Google Adwords. I am in a confusion whether to go for Flash or animanted gif banners. I need the quality of the banners to be professional. what is recommended ? Are there any specifications by google for the flash banners ?

    Any opinions will be greatly appreciated.

    Thnx

    I would go for animated gif. Flash needs the plugin, some people might not have it.

    Yeah i would use .gif. I am also of the impression that although most people do have broadband these days, there is a small minority of people who dont have this and wouldnt flash ads take longer to load anyway?
