Format description and guidance
A template that allows for the easy creation of a “scrolling skin” creative. The format allows three sets of assets (background image/video + side overlays) to be uploaded, with an interactive scroll triggered transition as the user scrolls down the page.
Avoid placing any text or logos on the sides or edges of the background assets, as they could appear cropped on smaller screen sizes. All "key" static elements or artwork (logos, messaging, CTA etc) should be implemented as part of the overlay assets.
The specs for the format are flexible, allowing the size and position of the overlays to be customised. For best results, export the overlay PNGs without any extra empty space around the edges - this allows the template to handle the overlay scaling and positioning more effectively.
Max total file weight
3.5 MB.
For best performance, all assets should be compressed and optimised to the lowest possible file weight. We recommend using tinypng.com to compress PNG overlays.
Click tags and tracking
The template supports four individual clickURL & trackers - one for each of the skin backgrounds, and another for the top banner.
