Techniques for remotely delivering shaped display presentations such as advertisements to computing platforms over information communications networks

A high impact desktop or palmtop product placement or “shaper” display presentation technique overcomes disadvantages of previous ad display techniques while providing high consumer interest and increased flexibility for content creators. An advertisement is run in front of or behind a web browser view so it appears with the user's desktop as background, and in a non-rectangular shape that looks nothing like a traditional pop-up or pop-under ad. A “shaper” ad can, for example, have any desired shape such as for example an exact replica of a product being advertised e.g., a cell phone, a Sports Utility Vehicle climbing a mountain, a plasma television set, etc.
