    Bottom links in the middle of the pictures can make it even look better.
    It's the first time I see a "Google ads" title looking better than without anything there.

    Good Work

    How many visitors do you get to your site and what is your target audience. For some reason, your site makes me very curious. I've never seen a site about candy before.

    Hi,

    I think you can remove the yellow "Google Ads" on the left side navigation menu to blend the ad even more.

    Check out DealofDay.com and look at the left navigation menu. See if you can tell where the AdSense ad ends and where the real navigation begins. (DealofDay.com is operated by Joel Comm, author of books on AdSense.)

    Hope that this helps.

    I originally made this site because during the hollidays my traffic would go down on other sites. In overture december (because of christmas) I saw that non competitve key words like candy cane, candy cane clip art, candy cane history, and candy cane recipe were all over 15,000. In other months these keyword is dead.

    I used to be number 1 on MSN and number 7 on yahoo for candy cane, but after the hollidays I forgot about it and now like 25 unique visitors a day. I redesigned it because I am planning on selling it in a few months when I get the traffic back up.

    At one point for a 2 week stretch I recived over 1,000 unique a day
