I got it doing :

Multi Clients.
Multi Banners per Campaign
Multi Campaigns
Campaigns per forum by subject.

It has a high learning curve untill you get down terminology.

- I have used it for 2-3 years .....

Pure garbage, I read it. Doesn't follow through.

I used it for about 20 minutes. Called it quits. I'm about to start using the geeks banner system after I do the 3.5.3 upgrade

I also use phpadsNew. Took me about an hr to set it up, now adding a new banner takes less than 3mins. :surprised:

i don't like it much either its too bloated great if you've got a huge site with lots of advertising clients multiple campaigns etc but for a small website/forum its like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

head over to the phpads forum if you have specific questions. After 30 minutes there and a few minutes in the documentation I had all my publishers and zones set up along with geo targeting. Super easy software to use once you get the hang of it.

Ya, I use phpadsnew and thought it was really well done; the features and abilities are tremendous.

However, it is a bit like using a boulder to kill a sparrow. The developers definitely focused on functionality and reliability over useability.

I use it but I don't really like it. You're right it's not easy to setup (the zones never worked on my forum) and the navigation is just stupid, you have to click too mutch links to get to the actual banners for instance. But it's free, so we can't really complain.

Maybe I'll try another one too.

Forget phpADSOLD. I kicked that to the trash long ago. You need the gift of the GAB. It makes advertising on my site EASY and I have the power to put whichever ad wherever the hell I want.

phpadnews is actually very very easy to use and learn. The only problem with it is that it's not the best choice for very large websites with a lot of ad campaigns cause it tends to load very slow once it's database gets a bit large. But as for it's use, it is very easy to use, plus they have a pretty good documentation available as well.
