    go to your
    css file in the skin
    and find background there they will have a css code. take that code and place it inside the adsense code

    can you be more specific. I am not too knowledgeable with VB. I see many CSS attributes.

    so I added this in ad_showthread_firstpost right before the google code. I looked at the source code on the DP forum. I did have to change the width to 97% in order to keep it from expanding beyond users posts. I am not sure why it does it at 100%. My forum is fluid style.

    <div style="padding:6px 0px 0px 0px" id="adsense_inline">
    <table class="tborder" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="97%" align="center">
    <tr>
    <td class="alt2" style="padding:1px" align="center">

    Add the css background attribute to the table/div in your html using the "style" attribute. e.g. style="background-color: #FFF"

    About the width: The 97% is probably referring to the whole screen. If you look at the posts they don't stretch out to the whole screen which means they're not 100% width. Keep messing with the percentage until you find that it fits with the posts, or add margins or padding.
