Hi,

As you might know, I'm currently running a special 30% offer for IMatch on my Facebook page. This special offer runs till Christmas.
Thanks to Facebook's stupid, stupid policies I had to re-create the special offer 2 times. :(
The image I used did contain too much text to be used in an ad. How Facebook measures the text content to decide whether it is 20% or less of the total image is apparently not based on mathematics but on some other esoteric method which escapes me. I did even sent them a screen shot of their very own measurement tool which calculates that the IMatch Logo (the only text in the offer) is only 16% of the total image. But to no avail.
You cannot discuss with companies like Facebook. The first answer you get is always a canned robot reply. When you complain and tell them to actually look at the screen shot and content of your message, they answer with a delay between 6 and 10 (!) hours. You cannot discuss things that way, it's just a waste of time. How can I argue against statements like: "Yes, our measurement tool shows that the text in your image is merely 16% of the total image, but that's still more than 20% by our policies"...
And since Facebook offers no way to change the image of a special offer, or to use a different image when you want to run an ad for an offer, I had to drop the offer (twice) until I came up with the current visual.
Some of you have commented favorably on the offer, but these comments are lost because I had to drop the offer to change the image. I would be thankful if you could comment again:
