Requesting a Promotional Banner
In order to have a promotional banner posted on the Northwestern home page, you must:
- Be affiliated with Northwestern University.
- Be associated with the web site or event sponsor, which also must be affiliated with Northwestern University.
- Submit a request no later than one month prior to the requested posting date. The request should include all text and graphics that are to appear in the banner.
- Include a link to the related web page and must follow Northwestern University web standards.
Banners are posted for one week, Monday to Monday. Banner space is reserved on a first come, first serve basis; however, Web Communications reserves the right to rearrange requests to accommodate high-level University events/issues.
Helpful guidelines for designing a banner
- Sizes: 235 x 115 pixels for small banner and 235 x 235 pixels for large banner.
- If you are creating a rotating banner, each frame must appear at least 4 seconds or more depending on the amount of text.
- Limit the number of text words as space is limited.
