Image ads in bitcointalk

[alani123]

I prefer to not hide bitcointalk ads by choice, just a matter of personal preference.
Today it was my first time I saw an image ad. I don't know if this was allowed before but I don't remember seing an image file as an ad in the forum previously. Did anything change recently?

Image of how the ad appears (I censored the logo):


The image of the ad is hosted on the forum. Link

For reference, ad design rules are here.

It looks new indeed:
"Method 1: single image"

I'm not sure. I saw ads few weeks ago when I joined Bitcointalk (in December).

Edit : Oh, you were probably sarcastic

Might just be that companies wouldn't prefer the image format because it can't be animated and ad blockers pick it up more easily.
There's no archive of that so I can't know for sure for how long it's been there... I just didn't remember any image ads.

But must have been bad memory from me.
I saw on archive.org image ads dating as far back as in early 2017. So anyway, I'll lock this thread.
