Features include global settings, advertisements allowing template conditionals, ad sharing and ad revenue sharing, timed advertisements, preset popular ad locations and functions such as sponsors, additional custom ad locations, random and static advertisements and its all very easy to use. You can use it for ordinary ads like adsense, banner rotations, or any content at all as well as using it to manage ads outside your forum too.
If you are using autoinsertion and were using vB Ad Management before version 4.00, you will need to remove your old template edits or advertisements will appear multiple times. Just reverse the old instructions below.

Is there a method for admin moderating ad submissions? I love the idea of registered users sharing their ads but would like to monitor ads which may contravene TOS etc.
It does less or more than template edits depending on what you want to do. For instance you can't assign an advert to individual forums with this, but you get random rotations which you don't with template edits. The Ad-sharing in the beta of course can't be done with template edits. Plus it saves an awful lot of time and makes things easier.

I pencilled this in with a question mark already but haven't done anything about it. What violations would you be looking for?
How much is it for a brand free one? If the brand free is purchased once, is it ok to use it on other sites in our posession as well?
Or is this something you prefer to talk about via pm?
I'm not sure if you can use it on multiple sites, you'll have to ask Red in regards to that. As far as the price is concerned, it's not that expensive at all. I'll PM you the amount. Anyways, it's totally worth it because these guys work hard at coding, so they need a little compensation.
Thank you very much indeed chkdgate but actually the most helpful thing someone can do for me is leave the link there. It helps with my website's PageRank and very occasionally does bring in a customer or two. A small donation for branding-free doesn't cover the benefits of having a footer link present, I just threw in the option as a curteousy for those who were really bothered by having the copyright displayed.
