    In their Terms of Use it is prohibited to take an advertiser's link and use it for your own banner. I saw people doing it I did myself once or twice. But it is agains the terms.

    Some advertisers provide nice banners. I have actually discovered that when I use advertisers' banners I sometimes do better. Other times I do not.

    I don't think that's a problem, but doing so will not track impressions... just clicks.

    Definitely agree with depotgang about the products and not banners, takes more updating though if you are trying for specific target groups.
