How to insert a 120 by 600 skyscraper ad in News Magazine Theme 640
1. Go to your dashboard
2. Click Appearance
3. Click News Magazine Theme 640 Options
4. Navigate to Tier 2 120
5. Inside the textbox insert the HTML code for your ad. It should look something like
<img src=”http://www.thedomainforyourimage.com/theimagefile.jpg”>
Let’s say your site is randomsitename.com and your image file name is randomimagefilename.jpg and you have uploaded the image for your ad to your news magazine theme folder. Lets assume your news magazine folder is named news-magazine-theme-640, then your code would look like
<img src=”http://www.randomsitename.com/wp-content/themes/news-magazine-theme-640/randomimagefilename.jpg”>
If you want to make the image clickable you would need to wrap it inside anchor tags as in the example below.
<a href=”http://www.siteimageshouldlinkto.com”><img src=”http://www.randomsitename.com/wp-content/themes/news-magazine-theme-640/randomimagefilename.jpg”></a>
You would then insert the code into the Tier 2 120 box.
For best results keep your image to a strict measurement of 120 pixels wide by 600 pixels high

Hi,
Thanks for the great idea of your Newsmagazine theme. I hoped that it would work. But it doesnt. In Windows vista/internet explorer the sidebards/tiers/widget overflows. Especially in firefox. They dont stay positioned. And sadly the newsmagazine theme doesnt work at all. How can it work ? And stay positioned. So that it is a multifunctional theme also for ads left or right, between sidebars etc..
Thanks.
Hi Martine, I’m quite surprised to hear your assessment as the news magazine theme is a widely used theme and has been for quite some time with a high percentage of raves. User experience will vary and depend on what the user is doing with the theme. The sidebar spaces have specific dimensions so if you are putting objects into the widgets that are wider than the sidebar dimensions you will most certainly have problems with overflow and shifting positions. It’s like trying to fit 2 gallons of water into a one gallon container. If you have widgets that you need which are too big for the sidebar spaces then your best option is to use a different theme. The news magazine theme is not fluid so it will not adjust around elements that don’t fit into the spaces where they are placed. Hope this helps.
