Fully Blend Adsense Ads with Background - Image Based Tutorial

i was just playing and i found this trick,
Its extremely simple and understandable.

Things you need
1 - Photoshop (if you dont have forget it)
2 - 5 Minutes of your time

Okay, here is how we go.

1 go to your site and specifically go to the area where you want the ads to be,
I will take the example of dp forum here.
Once you are in the area, hit "Print scrn sysRq" (beside the F12 key)
Now open photoshop.
Press Control + N
And do this options.

Then after the clip board opens press Control + V to paste the screenshot
I have trimmed the image a bit for saving space.

Select the eyedropper tool (i asked you to use photoshop, if you dont know how to use it, this is useless )
Now go the the background area, in our case its gray
Place the eyedropper tool in the gray area and do a right click, then select "Copy color as Html"

Now open a notepad and press Ctrl + V
Now you get the exact color code as per your background.
Now open your adsense code and paste this code in Full caps,
replace it for Background and border.

Result,
100% blended ads
More CTR
More Revenue
More Fun

Great Idea, Thanks! Dave.

 

Thanks nice info ,let me try the power of pthoshop

 

Lol photoshop not pthoshop, do post a feedback

 

Guys, why dont you use Color picker?

5 seconds and you're done with it, not 5 minutes


But beware that full blending is borderline illegal.

 

nice job this is very helpful for newbies, wish I'd read this when I first started using adsense

 

I could show you hundreds sites which break the rule & are still aktive

 

I'm confused.

This post is about finding out what your background color is?
My HTML editor tells me that in 6 different ways - CMYK, Crayon, HLS, HSV, HTML, and RGB.
Why would I want to do it in the way you suggest, when the info is just sitting there, when I open the page in my editor? Is it because the application that you use does not tell you the background color, or allow you to set it?

Perhaps not all that useful if you program and design your own sites but it would be useful for anyone who is using a free or purchased template created by someone else.

 

Are full blended isnt Risk?

 

YMC - Ah, I see. Thanks.

 

blending it too much like a navigation in a sidebar do get them G's pissed and mail you to change it. from my experience though, I'm in my 2nd year with adsense

 

you mean there are people out there that dont match their adsense with their color scheme? Why would you do that?

 

Knew this little trick already from my web design days, but still a great tip my man! Nice one

 

Doesnt dp use full blended ads after first post??

 

Full blend is not a problem, its only when you hide it in the content making it look as a part of the content.

Full blend to match your site theme is fine. .. Make sure you have enough space between the ads and content.

I use color picker, its much more easier and faster. Just drag the colorpicker on the screenshot and then click, you will get your color code.

 

Nice one, thanks.

 

Why do one need it?
Cant we find out the background color by just looking at CSS or HTML source ?

 

Not all people are blessed with html skills!!
Like me

 

The background need not be color only, it can be a colored background image which does not have a attached color code. In such a case you will need to find out the exact color.
