Adsense across the top

hi im trying to put two adsense bars across my page. and i have two problems
1. when i put in the script it puts it one under the other and i would like it across and

2.i dont want the bar too close to other things that the user has to click on so how would i put some padding around the adsenese bar.. ie if i wanted to put it at the very top of the page how can i move everything down with it?

 

Include the adsense code into separate floating div's and also add top/bottom padding to them to leave space between ads and other page elements.

 

Heres another vote on the div, you can then assign it an id and use css to fine tune its position.

 

ill give it a try
