Format description and guidance
Fluid skins are a responsive high impact format, composed of three individual HTML5 panels - a left panel, a right panel (the side panels), and a top banner. The side panels fill the space between the sides of the page content and the window edge, and scale responsively with the height and width of the browser. The topbanner fills the gap between the side panels, above the page content. The content within each panel should scale responsively based on the width and height of the individual panels. For more information about building responsive creative, check out of Guide to Responsive HTML and building responsive creative guide.
All creative assets (images, videos, scripts etc) used by your banner must be included within the creative Zip-file. Linking to assets hosted on external severs is not permitted, and may result in your ad being blocked by some vendors. The only exception to this rule is for webfonts hosted by fonts libraries for licensing purposes, such as Adobe Typekit, Google Fonts, MyFonts etc.
