Is there any reason why I would not be allowed to change something in the adsense code? For example changing the numbers that relate to the color of the ads. If I generate it by going to my account, I will have to copy and paste it to all my pages, but if I can just change the numbers myself I could get the code and then use a find a replace program to do the work. Would this be allowed?
If one has learned how to improve the look of the Adsense ads by making them more presentable (clickable), he/she would know how to change (not against TOS) some of the components (shown below) of the script and add a line immediately after "google_ad_client = "pub-xxx";" to get alternative ads if relevant ones are unavailable due to various reasons (somo many conflicting keywords, too little content, etc.) google_color_border = "FFFFFF"; google_color_link = "000080"; google_color_bg = "FFFFFF"; google_color_text = "000001"; google_color_url = "999999"; Example of the line for alternative ads: google_alternate_ad_url = "http://moderncl1ck.com/eb/6/XXX/0";
I add the channel data and the colors manually cause it does not mean changing it is just the same code adsense gives you, but a real change is of course against the tos.
