(FREE ONLINE PICTURE SITE) Picapp Violate AdSense TOS?

    Basically, this site allows you to embed their images onto your own blog for
    free!!! The problem: Picapp displays their own AdSense ads under the image.
    (see below screen shot)

    This means that if I have 3 adsense ads on my page + the picapp adsense ad,
    I would be breaking AdSense TOS. Furthermore, if I display more than 3
    picapp images on my page, they're breaking tos because they have more than
    3 ad blocks on a page.

    Quote from Picapp FAQ
    Will the PicApp image work on a site with Google AdSense?
    Absolutely! The two are unrelated. "

    So did Picapp break a deal with AdSense? Any help regarding the issue would
    be great. What's your take? I think we need JENSENSE!!

    UPDATE:
    Anybody have any info regarding the issue?
    I went ahead and contacted Picapp support, but they'll just likely point to their FAQ.

    hmmm...i seem to recall that adsense tos says no more than 3 of your OWN ad units....however i could be mistaken...and even if not, that sounds a little risky...i would say only put two of your own ads on the website so that you do not go beyond the limit of three

    if you want more ads than that, then try using link units, and youtube video ads...or just sign up for another advertising service and use their ads on your website as well
