Important Info: Standard and Rich Media creatives

• Creatives can be supplied as .gif or Flash (.swf). If built using Flash then the clickTag method should be used. A gif back-up creative should always be provided. Versions up to Flash v9 can be used.
• We accept 3rd Party tags from the majority of providers. The most commonly used by agencies for standard media on Channel 4 are Doubleclick and Atlas, for rich media flashtalking and Eyeblaster.
• Third party tags should always be in JavaScript form.
• A new window should open on click-through.
• Rapidly flashing content may trigger seizures in people with photosensitive epilepsy and therefore we discourage its use across the site. This is in line with our Accessibility Guidelines.
• Standard media should be received 3 full working days before campaign start date and Rich Media/Pre-rolls 5 full working days before.
