    Hey Guys, Has anybody implemented banners\ads in an application before? How would you recommend accomplishing this? What is the accepted industry standard of feeding ads into a program?

      Much of the how might be dependent on the requirements.

      Not sure what you mean. If you are asking about a client/server model then the most prevalent solution today is probably Web Services.

        Requirements - I am writing a c#.net application that needs to desplay banners in parts of the screen. That is the basic idea. It's hard for me to say what the technical requirement is. If I attach to a web service from a desktop application what technology would I use to display a banner?

          You can retrieve your banner from a database and load images into your resources and choose which ones to display and when, I don't see why this would be more complicated then a picturebox that loads images dynamically.

            Displaying a banner depends on the definition of "banner". For example if it's a bitmap image then just drawing it or using a control like a  PictureBox will work.

              The truth is that you guys are right.... The basic idea should be to connect to a web service that shoves either pictures\animated gifs or flash clips to play at certain intervals and the application presents the data... Pictures and animated gifs should be no problem... what about more complicated banners (flash clips) - how are those "normally" played in c# .net applications.
