    Hello All,

    I just started this site 8 weeks ago. I have ads in the following:

    - Top
    - Video list (2 there now)
    - Directly under a video when you view it.

    My site: http://www.myquadvideos.com

    Thanks!

    I'd switch the one right under "Latest Videos" to be below the first video and change the link color so it blends in.

    Then have like 1 or 2 more videos and put in the second ad (blended as the first one is)

    They still aren't quite blended. Closer, but not perfect. Your link text color is #363636, I'd recommend that as well for your adsense titles (instead of black). And they'd blend a tad better if you added an underline to the video links (since Adsense ads have an underline)

    In your themes/mqv/style.css, I'd change
    
    .showVideo_title a,
    .showVideo_title a:visited,
    .showVideo_title a:hover{
    	font-size:11px;
    	font-weight:bold;
    	color:#363636}
    
    Code (markup):
    to
    
    .showVideo_title a,
    .showVideo_title a:visited,
    .showVideo_title a:hover{
    	text-decoration: underline;
    	font-size:11px;
    	font-weight:bold;
    	color:#363636}
    
    Code (markup):

    Hi yfzcentral,

    May I ask how you created ur cool flash banner on ur site with the links to the videos embedded? I have the same script and would look at getting something that could do similar, looks great.

    Thats a nice placement on top just below adsense..
    Will probably help adsense CTR also:)

    that clip with the .38 special "teacher teacher" song could get your adsense account banned, unless you somehow got permission to use it?

    don't put adsense on anything that could be a copyright violation.
