    Yeah! wow! Change the colors on those ads. Right now they scream out to your visitors, "hey im an advertisement!! Dont click on me!" Your ads should blend into your site.

    Looks like you're taking the "Digital Point" route of differing colors at the top. I don't mind that color, but for the links in the middle of the page it's quite off-putting. Like a sickly yellow on off-white. I'd have to agree, change the colors a bit.

    Thanks so much for the tips. I've blended the ads so the fit into the sit more and hopefully that will help with the CTR. What do you think.

    Also I've noticed that on certain pages, no ads are displayed in some of the adsense boxes....http://www.snowcommunity.com/index.php for example. Is there a way to hide the box when no ads are served, or is there a way to ensure ads go there...not sure why they are missing.

    CHEERS

    The left-menu ad right now is perfect. I almost clicked it.

    You can try using your sites color as alternative link for your banners, so it will be blue and not white as it is now.

    I really need to find a way to hide the space when no ads are there. I'd like to have a picture in place instead...

    Any ideas?
