Tear Back/Peel Back
Tear Back/Peel Back ads are a fun way to get the user's attention and drive your message home. An initial ad (100 x 100) resides in upper right corner of the page. When the user clicks, the ad tears down to reveal the full page ad (back page); you can include anything on the back page that you would put on a web page (including additional information, dynamic data, video streaming, data collection, interactive games, and more).
