I'll be interested to hear if this actually works out. As a designer who's had to reformat ads for different newspaper sizes and such, I just can't see how automagically resizing ads is going to work well. Unless you don't actually care if the ads look good. In the ones I did, they always took a bit of finessing for each size since the proportions and sometimes even orientation inevitably changed. Simple stuff, sure but not polished ads. But I'm happy to be proven wrong. > I think I can make this work.
