    I created a site showing pictures of different kind of diseases, but there are some pictures showing private part of a person. But I guess not offensive because it's part of showing the disease look like...

    But I am not sure if google will consider this as offensive or adult content... here is a sample page http://health.bayaw.com/Abscess.html

    seems ok as long as its posted for medical help. but yet the site content part must be more elabrate that left side bar looks small for content. also you must once get it verified with google support, why take chances.

    Wow, interesting question. There are some pretty explicit pictures there. You should definitely email Adsense support to get their okay and MAKE SURE you tell them exactly what is on the site, and even better, give a link to the page with the explicit pictures. My guess is they will say No, but maybe I'm wrong.

    i did not see any adsense codes on this site but i think you must be very careful if you want to use adsense codes on this site. i strongly suggest you to ask this to the adsense team.

    Why don't you just email them and ask?
    That's the only way to be sure.

    Anyway if it's a decent medical site, I don't think this could be a problem.

    I agree with the rest, you should email Google for approval first. I am not thinking they will approve it even if it is for medical purposes, the pictures are very explicit. If you decide to do it without asking, you may get banned and it is very hard to plead you case after the fact.

    Better contact google just to be on the safe side. I would think something like this would be OK, but it is graphic.

    i helped put adsense on a similar style of paghe some years ago

    its best to get in toucxh with google and ask them to approve first

    then the buck is with them

    they normally reply within a couple of days

    There's so many places people can have abcesses - why choose to display half a dozen public region images? Still, since it's an educational type site I shouldn't think there'll be a problem but I echo the comments of others who say ask AdSense Support to be sure.

    I think Google will definately ban you if adsense is placed on this site....I got a warning for a lot less than that

    Thanks for sharing this matter to us. I now have a clearer picture of what 'mature' sites are for google.
