ManiaPub question

[gouxim]

Is this the mechanism we need to use to have everyone see it? If so, Macduffman will need to know how to do it so he can get the word out, since he's running out of time before his tournament starts.

Yes indeed! See this topic: http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=8287 If you have any questions, don't hesitate to post in the dedicated forum at http://forum.maniaplanet.com/viewforum.php?f=41

on a sidenote: i expected the 2dtriangles to be fixed, why the delay?

First of all,sorry for the rant in my post. Was only a little bit pissed. My apologies.

that's where you will find little information space on tv and advertising/sponsor on movie posters etc.

but you are right the global design would need to be rethink in order to integrate this better

I don't think it will come soon since we are dealing with Maniaplanet 2.0, but there is always things to be improve.

Now a little bit more constructive. I'm not against the idea of ManiaPub, but the placement could be way better.
In TMU, we got the video of some advertisement directly in the main menu. In TMN, we got the ad's if you open the game and you have to click it away. Why not doing it the same in TM2? Add a section in ManiaHome, which shows all the ads? Or put them on the right side of mania home in a small column?

You're confusing 2 different concepts:
When you launch TMF you have splashscreens; they are "real" advertising for TM2.
ManiaPub is community advertising, which goal is to stimulate content creation and "virtual" money economy.

cf. Hylis' answer:

we have selected some spaces, like in profile where we think players may look more for cars and multiplayer servers where people may look more for servers/teams or editor where plug ins, mods and tutorial can more easily find their targets.

Actually my question used to be "now that 2d triangles finally is fixed as promised, will it be possible to build moving maniapub banners with it".. But then i found out it wasn't implemented yet, so i altered my post.

Anyways, after clearing this up, back on topic
