I can't live without ez Ad

Actually, you should be able to replicate the pattern with the <i>delimiter</i> functionality of eZ 3. An example is available at http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/customization/custom_design/examples/common_template_issues/complex_list But, a quick (and untested) run-down would be something along the lines of:

{let name=Child children=fetch('content','tree',hash(parent_node_id,23,))}
  {section loop=$:children}
	[YOUR ARTICLE INCLUDE CODE]
    {delimiter modulo=3} [YOUR ADVERTISEMENT INCLUDE CODE] {/delimiter}
  {/section}
{/let}

The important part is <i>{delimiter modulo=3} [YOUR ADVERTISEMENT INCLUDE CODE] {/delimiter}</i> which will insert your advertisement on every third (in this case) iteration through the loop. So, you could tweak it to match the pattern you want it to follow.

More examples can be found at http://ez.no/ez_publish/documentation/development/libraries/ez_template/functions/section

Hope this helps,

You are quite welcome! eZ publish is a great tool, even though, or perhaps because it has a steep learning curve. This is a really good community that has taught me a lot, so I try to give back where I can. :)
