Greetings Tommy, great article.
Out of all the solutions you provided above I believe Ad-MInister is the best as it gives the greatest flexibility.
It allows me to “place” a banner with position on a page and I can edit the HTML at any time. While the other plugins are good as well, they are limited to the sizes that are “pre-defined” with the plugin. Also, Ad-MInister is some what outdated and has several minor bugs.
Are there any other plugins that you may recommend similar to Ad-Minister ?
Looking forward to your reply.
Mr. Alexander

Fantastic, advertising on my site just steped up & gear & manually remembering to do tasks get forgot
Thanks for the info. WP125 is great and works well.
Thanks for the list of Ad plugins. I think the WP125 plugin looks the best because it is compatible with WP 2.8. I think I’m going to give it a try.
