Due to compatibility issues between various email programs, complex markup including tables, divs, and inline images is discouraged. Most common email programs will properly render basic markup including font face and size, bold, italics, and hyperlinked text. For easiest trafficking, format and send the email blast as a Microsoft Word document.

Up to 5 lines text copy
Up to 72 characters per line (including URL)
Rich Media Specifications:
Due to the fact that not all browsers are Flash capable, advertisers must include a backup gif with all Flash ads.
Teachers.Net does not allow banners to automatically download plug-ins or ask the user to download plug-ins. Advertisers must provide code which automatically recognizes whether or not Shockwave plug-in is installed. If a Flash plug-in is detected then the Flash media will be shown. If not, the backup gif media should be shown.
All audio must be user-initiated; the ad may play sounds, but only if the user clicks on it, or leaves the mouse cursor over the ad for a minimum of 3 seconds.
Our standard testing period for any rich media ad is 10 business days.
All rich media ads should be delivered in full working order, include necessary components and be capable of being displayed on all browsers and all platforms. If the browser is incapable of showing the rich media ad, a backup animated gif should be shown instead.
We reserve the right to pull any rich media ad from rotation due to technical problems.
