Title: Very Wide Ads on iPhone Safari
Post by: Tim on June 30, 2018, 08:23:38 PM

Hi,

I ran into the above s couple of days ago.   It looks like it was an issue a few months ago in March:

This is the same as I saw and am seeing now (I hope this shows - I can get a direct .jpg link from a computer but not on the Imgur app)

Anyway, it’s only a little irritating as I can resize the text or refresh a few times until a more appropriately sized ad shows up. 

Thought I should mention it - I would assume the code for these ads is rendering them at >100% relative to the tables generated here.

I just came here to post about the same thing in chrome on my android tablet. The problem looks to be that LAF is accepting huge images and not scaling them

SAGA iron man tournament - 1875 x 209 (http://leadadventureforum.com/Saga_Laf_AD.jpg)
HLBS - 2657 x 295 (http://leadadventureforum.com/NS_VEHICLES_LAF_BANNER.jpg)
Sons of Mars 1329 x 148 (http://leadadventureforum.com/laf_Ad_sons_of_mars.jpeg)
Wargame Illustrated 1875 x 209 (https://leadadventureforum.com/laf_ad_gim_rangex.jpg)

Much more sensible size that means I don't have to reload the page 5 or 6 times until I get something I can read - 900 x 100 (https://leadadventureforum.com/laf_ad_Prime.jpg)

LAF folk - please standardise on something reasonable or at least scale it. I have a 27" monitor that is 2560 x 1440, so that HLBS ad is wider than my screen can show

Those images above are all automatically scaled within the img tag, why not also within the advert banner?
