Hi looking to start a new network and wanted to see if anyone has any suggestions on a better ad server?
I prefer free/ open source..

steep learning curve.
It takes me forever to remember how to add new ads.
I dont update it often and always forget.

My issue with ad servers is all of the new ad blockers are shutting them off.

Install them on your browser and surf around. Hit up the biggest tubes... ads are GONE. They are even blocking standard sized banners and Adsense NOT running on an ad server. :-( Real pain in the ass. Open X gets blocked right out of the gate.

Rename the folder that openx is installed in... don't put the words openx, ads, etc in the url and blockers won't remove them.
