Awsome!!! Can you lend any insights as to how difficult it was? We get lots of questions about this and would love to implement it natively so folks dont have to figure it out. Maybe just a few bullet points on the basic steps. All Good if you dont' have the time or energy - we soooo get it.

no problem will email you the steps i did, its easy to set the iAd code to the project , the hard step is to edit the layout of the app to leave a section for iAds.

tried doing it last night, no success I think there is more to it, because by default there is no Resource folder. I have read all the docs available on the net, tried everything and non works. aussiedra can you lend a hand, very much appreciated, thanks!

Hi Guys.. There is not Resources folder in your buzztouch app because your app does not have any Interface Builder files. Interface Builder is a tool used to graphically created views, screens, and controls for iOS. buzztouch does all this with code so you won't see any of these files. You'll also not understand any iAd tutorials that reference Inteferface Builder. You'll need to create a view (called a UIView in iOS) from code in the screen you want to include the ads in. The UIView you create is a container to hold the ads. How you implement this, and the details about it's done are complex. Especially in v1.4 buzztouch v1.5 is close to having ad support directly from your control panel. When this is complete, each screen's Advanced Settings will have a checkbox to 'include ads' on that screen. @Redbullet: You may be best served to wait until it's supported auto-magically? Depends on your schedule and ambition. It should not be more than a few weeks until this is working.

@Jordan: You've been waiting for this for months and I, like you, can't wait for it to be done. There are soooooo many things to consider and design and engineer for each little feature release that our predications for release dates are almost always premature. Sucks but true. I have iAd's working on several different devices here at the secret layer...but... we've not completed the Control Panel portion (maybe the most important?) yet. The Control Panel needs to know about your 'Ad Partner' (it may not be iAd) and a few other options that are super-duper complex in the grand scheme of things. What app do you plan to place ads in first? Just wondering.

I would love to open up iFan Classic TV with a (Free and Ad Supported version) along w/ the .99 version. I've outlined a few more creative apps to take full advantage of the 1.5. I cannot say it enough, I appreciate what you've done here and BuzzT gives you a push in making beautiful Apps; in my case while self teaching myself the core Dev.. of Xcode. Hats off to you brother. I look forward to the Ad add on.
