    Ouch..Man your site hurts my eyes.

    And Google doesnt allow any text which mimics to Google ads.
    So in my opinion you should ask Google right away that whether your site is okay with their TOS or not.

    because your text is too confusing with the google ads.

    The design serves a certain audience, the typical designs have gathered a lot of attention over the years, they have been published in books, magazines, events etc. I removed the extra links and will email Google with an example. It's not meant to suggest navigation since it doesn't say: navigation at the top or assumes it is, however I have always followed the rules carefully and will do so now, I want to omit any problems since our business has always been very ethical, I hate websites that screw the adsense program and make our advertising income decline.

    At least it was fun to see how you can mimic the ads lay-out with a good stylesheet and some careful editing hehe.

    Google doesnt allow it. they have a strict policy about it.
    So ask google rightaway IMO.

    There are some really good websites with blended adsense in this thread, it gives me many many good ideas to try out myself someday.

    I am not sure about this but if i remember correctly the part about mimicing (did i spelled this right) is about other ads on the same pages not site links.

    Even site links too. I am sure because I wrote to google about one of my sites. and Google strictly said that I can not place any content which mimic google ads.

    Strange because we have seen examples where content is blended in such a manor that it is hardly noticibale (sorry for the spelling) and does mimic the ads.

    And all that was said was that it was good blending just like G wants you too or do some people get favored over others? I hope not.

    Also... when taking this specific part out of the Adsense TOS it doesn't say anywhere you can't mimic parts of your content to ads that will be displayed as you can see in this part of the TOS...

    And like said before we have seen examples before that the content and site links does match or look a lot like the adsense ads itself and is considdered as good blending techniques.

    if you think so then you are wrong.
    I am not spreading any false information. I am just saying to play safe and ask google. if you think you are doing good then well done.
    its always better safe than worry.

    Absolutely right:cool: but i can't believe in Flashvictims case it isn't allowed what he has done, he has shown good and nice blending techniques in my oppinion and is similar with other examples we have seen.

    I don't know what your specific situation was but i can't believe you where being denied by G to perform nice looking blending techniques.
    Everybody wants to have a nice looking site and not a site where ads are obviously present (some of us do) and even if they where obviously present and in your face style then it is also a risk of ad blindness for the visitor and G and the publishers wouldn't benefit from this. As long as you are not bluntly asking or soliciting for visitors to click on your ads i can't see what the problem is.

    Blending is a nice way of preventing add blindness towards the visitor.

    Hello all. You are doing a great job here, anyway, I would like to see some figures, how this blending increased your revenues (rough in line with AdSense TOS, of course). By& the way, please check my site:
    http://www.roofingchildsplay.com
    it is still in beta, just couple of pages, but will grow.

    I wonder if this is legal?
    function google_ad_request_done(google_ads) {
    	if (google_ads.length) {
    		document.write("<div class=\"gap9\" style=\"font-weight:bold; color:#00006F\">",(google_info.feedback_url?"<a href=\"" + google_info.feedback_url + "\" target=\"newwin\">Ads by Google</a>":"Ads by Google"),"</div>");
    		for (var i = 0; i < google_ads.length; i++) {
    			document.write("<div class=\"gap9\"><a href=\"" + google_ads[i].url + "\" onmouseover=\"window.status='" + google_ads[i].visible_url + "'; return true;\" onmouseout=\"window.status='';return true;\" target=\"newwin\"><span class=\"bold\">" + google_ads[i].line1 + "</span><br><span class=\"black\">" + google_ads[i].line2 + " " + google_ads[i].line3 + "</span><br>" + google_ads[i].visible_url + "</a></div>");
    		}
    	}
    }
    
    google_ad_client = 'ca-vnu-uk_js';
    //google_ad_channel = 'www.vnunet.com';
    google_ad_output = 'js';
    google_encoding  = 'utf8';
    google_max_num_ads = 5;
    google_safe = 'medium';
    google_adtest = 'off';
    Code (markup):
    Is that some Google approved tweak or are they up to something?

    Never mind the TOS
    Their code doesn't look like anything Google has generated for me so I'm guessing they must have modified it.
