    We established it was against TOS a while ago.

    Your site is fine.

    Welcome to DP. :)

    It's not wise to publically state your CTR - doing so can get your Adsense account yanked.

    How do you space those images out next to each other? Everytime I try at www.fantasy-pc.com it get clobbered on the next line and stuff.

    Thanks.

    Are you trying to get banned from Adsense?

    Read atleaset the last 2 or 3 pages of this thread and you will learn that the images are no longer allowed.

    Whoa thanks a lot.

    But I read another thread, that it isn't entirely illegal to put images, just not so they don't divert attention right?

    Not sure which thread you're referring to but go ahead if you feel it's worth it to risk your account for a few bucks :)

    I still see alot of sites doing this. I wonder if they never read the terms or just do not care. It was great when it was allowed but i would not rick being banned over it.

    No... you can't do it. It's against Adsense TOS.

    Oh my god.. are we BACK to this AGAIN???

    IT IS OK TO PUT IMAGES NEXT TO ADSENSE! As long as you have some kind of break, something that differentiates them from the AdSense block itself.

    I even wrote to Google, asking them if this was ok. I received an email back saying that this was ok. AND.. this is nothing new, I received that email from Google over a year ago! And my site has over 6,500 members (it's a forum), and no problems from Google on this, EVER!

    So guys and gals, do do what you want, but I have been told by Google it is ok. All I did was put a simple line between the images and the ad block. It was fine with them.

    Don't make me pull up an e-mail from Adsense saying it is OK and then the warning I received.

    It's good that you have some positive results from your site. Just remember the TOS.

    Yeah... a year ago. Terms change.

    But in the end it is up to the individual to choose to read the Adsense terms or listen to some random forum member. Results may vary.

    This thread really should be closed. It mixes up old and new info on how ads and pictures can be combined according to the adsense tos.

    The new info is that even a line separating ads & pictures is not good enough: can still get you banned.

    Here's what google said on this in december 2006: http://adsense.blogspot.com/2006/12/ad-and-image-placement-policy.html
