Billboards present large <a href="/wiki/Advertising" title="Advertising">advertisements</a> to passing pedestrians and drivers. Typically brands use billboards to build their brands or to push for their new products. </p><p>The largest ordinary-sized billboards are located primarily on major highways, expressways, or principal arterials, and command high-density consumer exposure (mostly to vehicular traffic). These afford the greatest visibility due not only to their size, but because they allow creative "customizing" through extensions and embellishments. </p><p><a href="/wiki/Poster" title="Poster">Posters</a> are the other common form of billboard advertising, located mostly along primary and secondary arterial roads.

They have to be readable in a very short time because they are usually read while being passed at high speeds. Thus there are usually only a few words, in large print, and a humorous or arresting image in brilliant color. </p><p>Some billboard designs spill outside the actual space given to them by the billboard, with parts of figures hanging off the billboard edges or jutting out of the billboard in three dimensions. An example in the United States around the turn of the 21st century was the <a href="/wiki/Chick-fil-A" title="Chick-fil-A">Chick-fil-A</a> billboards (a chicken sandwich <a href="/wiki/Fast_food_restaurant" class="mw-redirect" title="Fast food restaurant">fast food chain</a>), which had three-dimensional cow figures in the act of painting the billboards with misspelled anti-beef slogans such as "friends don't let friends eat beef." </p><p>The first "scented billboard", an outdoor sign emitting the odors of <a href="/wiki/Black_pepper" title="Black pepper">black pepper</a> and <a href="/wiki/Charcoal" title="Charcoal">charcoal</a> to suggest a grilled steak, was erected on <a href="/wiki/NC_150" class="mw-redirect" title="NC 150">NC 150</a> near <a href="/wiki/Mooresville,_North_Carolina" title="Mooresville, North Carolina">Mooresville, North Carolina</a> by the <a href="/wiki/Bloom_(store)" title="Bloom (store)">Bloom grocery chain</a>. The sign depicted a giant cube of beef being pierced by a large fork that extended to the ground. The scents were emitted between 7–10 A.M. and 4–7&#160; P.M. from 28 May 2010 through 18 June 2010.<sup id="cite_ref-2" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-2"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>2<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Types">Types</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Billboard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=2" title="Edit section: Types"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Painted">Painted</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Billboard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=3" title="Edit section: Painted"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Almost all these billboards were painted in large studios. The image was projected on the series of paper panels that made up the billboard. Line drawings were done, then traced with a pounce wheel that created perforated lines. The patterns were then "pounced" onto the board with a chalk-filled pounce bag, marking the outlines of the figures or objects. Using oil paints, artists would use large brushes to paint the image. Once the panels were installed using hydraulic cranes, artists would go up on the installed billboard and touch up the edges between panels. These large, painted billboards were especially popular in Los Angeles where historic firms such as Foster &amp; Kleiser and Pacific Outdoor Advertising dominated the industry. Eventually, these painted billboards gave way to graphic reproduction, but hand-painted billboards are still in use in some areas where only a single board or two is required. The "<a href="/wiki/Sunset_Strip" title="Sunset Strip">Sunset Strip</a>" in Los Angeles is one area where hand-painted billboards can still be found, usually to advertise upcoming films or albums.<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p><p>A technical invention called "trivision" allowed three different images to be rotated for presentation.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">&#91;</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">&#93;</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Digital">Digital</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Billboard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=4" title="Edit section: Digital"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:1_times_square_night_2013.jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/1_times_square_night_2013.jpg/220px-1_times_square_night_2013.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="147" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/1_times_square_night_2013.jpg/330px-1_times_square_night_2013.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/c/c0/1_times_square_night_2013.jpg/440px-1_times_square_night_2013.jpg 2x" data-file-width="7360" data-file-height="4912" /></a><figcaption><a href="/wiki/Digital_billboard" title="Digital billboard">Digital billboards</a> abound in <a href="/wiki/Times_Square" title="Times Square">Times Square</a>, Manhattan.</figcaption></figure> <p>A <a href="/wiki/Digital_billboard" title="Digital billboard">digital billboard</a> shows varying imagery and text created with computer programs and software.

They can be placed wherever there is heavy foot traffic due to an event – including convention centers, train stations, airports, and sports arenas. They can repeat routes, ensuring that an advertiser's message is not only noticed but that information is retained through repetition. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Multi-purpose">Multi-purpose</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Billboard&amp;action=edit&amp;section=6" title="Edit section: Multi-purpose"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Billboards may be multi-purpose.

Because of the lack of space in cities, these billboards are placed on the sides of buildings and sometimes are free-standing billboards hanging above buildings.
