The other day I set up two of the new brand ads. I got an error message for one, but when I clicked submit a second time it went through.
Anyway, no impressions yet, and I've been raising my bids a little at a time to try and get them to fire up.
Yesterday I created a third Brand ad for a different series. It was rejected an hour later with a message saying i must provide an author profile pic.
I opened up the draft (they helpfully converted my ad to a draft so I could edit it), and sure enough there's a pic there. I mean, it stayed there from the original two ads and they were both accepted.
So, clicked submit. Error: You've already used that campaign name. I added a 2 to the campaign name and resubmitted.
An hour later: rejected. No profile pic.
This time I deleted the profile pic, uploaded it again, cropped it, changed the ad title and submitted again.
Ding! No profile pic. Third rejection. (Each time I went to the feedback page linked from the ad and clicked the 'I don't understand' option.)
By now I'm getting a bit fed up, so I left everything alone and changed the ad title:
ITS GOT A PROFILE PIC FGS.
and clicked submit. I regretted it immediately, because I don't usually do that sort of thing. I consoled myself with the thought that (hopefully) I'm only railing against a dim-witted AI.
Anyway, this morning the ad was accepted, so I quickly changed the title and went on with my life.
