When you create a FLA file from a template (Select File > New, and click the Templates tab), you see many of these sizes.
Creating SWF file advertisements
Use these guidelines when you create advertisements:
Optimize your graphics. Make SWF file banner advertisements 15K or smaller.
Create a GIF banner advertisement in Flash Professional that is 12K or smaller.
Limit looping banner advertisements to three repetitions. Many websites adopt the standardized file size recommendations as advertising
specifications.
Use the GET command to pass data between an advertisement and a server, and do not use the POST command. For more information on
GET and POST, see the getURL function in ActionScript 2.0 Language Reference.
