    Never knew Google had such thing:

    google_ad_width = 980;
    google_ad_height = 15;
    google_ad_format = "728x15_0ads_al";

    I assume the user manually changed the ad width!!!

    It's on this site - http://kalynskitchen.blogspot.com/

    Surely that must be against TOS ?

    I guess it is not a premium AdSense user, since they have special privileges so I guess also custom banners on request

    If they've manually altered the code then yes it is.

    I just used Firebug in my browser to manually change the width back to 728 and it just left a gap either side of the google ad which could have been filled with a suitable background colour. Risking his account isn't worth it for the sake of design.
