Max File Size
Make sure that your ads are no bigger than 150 KB in file size. Anything above that will be disapproved by Google simply because the bigger the file is, the longer it takes to load. If you do the designing yourself or hire someone to do the ad graphics for you, know to give clear instructions to your designer that the final product should be in JPEG, SWF, PNG, or GIF formats. Google will not accept any other formats.
