Image Guidelines
Ads on Stadium are image-based. To ensure your ad looks great across all screen sizes and contexts, images must follow these design standards:
- Keep it simple. Ads should communicate your message at a glance. Avoid visual clutter.
- Minimal text. Text in ad images should be brief — a short tagline or brand name is fine. Avoid fine print, since the ads will often appear on smaller screens.
- Text must be large and legible. Any text in your image must be clearly readable at small sizes. Small or hard-to-read text will not be approved.
- Minimal colors. Use a focused, clean color palette. Ads with excessive or clashing colors will not be approved.
- No offensive imagery. Images must not contain anything violent, sexually suggestive, hateful, or otherwise inappropriate.
- Required dimensions. Images must be at least 600px wide × 200px tall — they should appear crisp on all common displays.

💡 Tip: Think billboard, not brochure. The best-performing ads on Stadium use a clear logo, a bold visual, or a simple message.

Content Standards
All ad content — images, text, links, and associated landing pages — must meet the following standards:
- Family-friendly. All ads must be appropriate for audiences of all ages, including children. Content that is not suitable for minors will not be approved.
- Inclusive and respectful. Ads must be appropriate for people of all backgrounds, cultures, nationalities, and identities. Content that is deemed discriminatory or offensive will not be approved.
- No inappropriate content. This includes but is not limited to: nudity or sexual content, graphic violence, hate speech, content that promotes illegal activity, or content that demeans any individual or group.
- Relevant to our audience. While we welcome a wide range of advertisers, ads should be broadly appropriate for a sports and recreational audience.
