When you decide to run some banner ad campaigns through a variety of platforms, or create banners for your affiliates here are some standard sizes to consider.
I've put together this quick guide to consolidate everything in one place. It gets a little tedious visiting each and every website to figure out which sizes to create. Best approach for leveraging artwork is to find some sizes that are consistent across all platforms and start with those. I will be updating this post with some source files to download as well so that you can have some pre-made templates.
All sizes are in pixels.
