I want to develop a pixel site (million dollar homepage style), but
with some specifics. I have not investigated too much on the
available scripts.

can you recommend me something?

I intend to use php/mysql. what could be the best implementation
for displaying banners?

Oh no, nonononononono. Not another one. Please, I emplore you: Don't go down that road!

For banner ads phpAdsNew is the defacto standard. But please don't do it, once was novel any more than that is a waste of time.

Here's a quote from an article in which Alex Tew, the guy who made milliondollarhomepage.com, was interviewed.

Quote: Tew said he is aware of the dozens of websites looking to copy the successful format of The Million Dollar Homepage but said they'll have little success "because it's already been done".

He said: "That just shows how uninventive people are," adding that it mirrors the reasons why the dot-com bubble bursting was so much worse than it should have been as markets which could sustain one successful business model were often flooded with dozens of imitators looking to replicate it with no added-value of their own.
