Using XOOPS 20.0.16. Tryiing to build a dog website.

I would like to have advertising, (actual newspaper ads types) in the center with pictures of dogs (thumbnails) on each side. Should I do the whole center in html with a 3 column table or should I do the center with the advertising and use blocks on left and right side with thumbnails or are there other options?

What if I would use all advertising in the center with thumbnails inbetween the advertising so people must scroll?

I know it would be easier to use a photo module but then people would have no reason (unless by choice) to scroll the advertising.

If you use a content module - you could always use something like Adsense to include an advert within the content itself.

I believe James Morris covers something of this nature at one of his sites (I'll get the URL in a second!)

In addition - a new release of SmartObjects (essentially a resource module for SmartFactory modules) will support a method of easily adding Adsense adverts with a simple command almost anywhere in XOOPS

won't I still have to use a image (picture) module so people can upload their own pictures and it automatically accepts and creates the thumnails and the pictures?

Where do I get the new release of SmartObjects? I also can't find a module regarding adsense.
