“Hello Feebs! Thank you very much for your answear. It is really very useful for me.

At the moment I'm working on the next part of the page, which is about our requirements relating to graphical banners. And I have the same questions. Is my translation correct? Does it sound natural?

Banner Requirements

File formats: GIF and FLASH

Dimensions	Max Size
480×90 240×180	20KB
240×400 480×180	30KB
100%×60	40KB

Those banners which don’t have borders look more beautiful and those which are not animated look even better (besides, they work better).
Banners cannot contain annoying animation, grammatical and orthographic mistakes. They also must comply with Russian legislation.
The link for FLASH banners should be written in the on-release handler (on (release) { }) as follows: getURL(banner_href, "_blank"); so that our system can count the clicks correctly. In that way, after clicking on the banner the link will be opened in a new window.
It’s a button which should be an object for the handler. Your attention is drawn to the absence of inverted commas in the first parameter. This is very important. To do so, you should switch the entry field into the expression mode (‘=’). Here’s the explicative picture (Macromedia FLASH MX):

When publishing or exporting a banner, install FLASH-player 6 or lower and ActionScript 1.0.
