Banners related question for webmasters and sponsors

After some long time being busy with other things, I recently started working on few sites and I came up to this problem..

There are some really nice sponsors out there, just perfect for my sites BUT their banners aren't really decent or they don't have banners for all standard dimensions.

Some banners out there look fugly, some are updated back in 2005 and every surfer saw them. Many sites don't even have one, for example, I need vertical and skyscraper type of banners for my blogs, can't find them on many sites I promote.

I might build those banners on my own but it will really be extra time consuming.

Question for webmasters:

What do you do in cases like this? Do you build banners on your own? Do you contact sponsors with request for some decent banners (I really did that)? Or you just don't care and put text links and/or old banners?

Question for sponsors:

How often do you update your banners? Do you have all regular sizes? If not, why not?


I expect some honest answers here..

Maybe I'm wrong but having an interesting/attractive/alluring banner on your site is important part of advertising.
