Ads in Java Desktop

I'm preparing to deploy a game developed using LIBGDX for both android and Desktop computers. Is there a way to put ads in a desktop application? I'd like to generate revenue from the desktop ads too.

You'd have to stick a browser widget in your desktop application and display adverts in there. JEditorPane's HTML support is pretty primitive, however, so you'd have to search for an embeddable Java browser or a custom subclass of JEditorPane which supports modern HTML (I think JEditorPane support stops at HTML 3.2). There are some freely available alternatives just a Google search away.

Off the top of my head, I can't think of any advertising networks geared towards desktop applications at all, so the browser approach is probably your only real shot at doing what you want.
