how many shades of blue can you choose from in adsense account?

Maybe i am wrong but i read somewhere there are 200 different colours that you can choose from for changing background color or link color, so i wanted to ask you guys the following...

I'm in the middle of designing the layout of my site and wanted to know how many shades of blue i can choose from the adsense program.
I am not registered yet with a single site so i can't take a look myself.

Could one of you be so kind to post the color codes that you can choose from.
Offcourse if this isn't to much trouble otherwise forget i ever asked

 

Adsense text ads let you pick from "some" colour schemes, but you can edit the code to use ANY HEX colour values for the border, ad background, link text, description text and URL text. So you can make it match your sites colour palette 100% When you log into adSense to generate the ad code you can change the following:

google_color_border = "FFBB00";
google_color_bg = "FFD0AA";
google_color_link = "000066";
google_color_url = "222222";
google_color_text = "222222";

So make your site, and when you are in the program you can edit your own colours, choose the blues you like the best, not the ones adSense has as default.

 

When you design the link content code, you can select any color you would want by replacing the color info within the script. I personally have done this on a number of sites to match background colors for blending purposes.

 

Thanks Critters By the way can you also change the "ads by google" text color?

 

Also thanks to you North Carolina SEO

 

No, to prevent publishers hiding this by making it the same or similar colour to the border you can not edit this, it is automatically set to the opposite colour as the border. So white border = black "ads by google"

 

Thanks guys

 

NPB, welcome to the AdSense forum

 

btw, how is color of "ads by goooogle selected"? it is oppossite to what? border color or smth else?

 

Aren't you reading ?

 

I think you cannot select all the shades because only web enabled colors will be displayed.

 

I do that too......but was just wondering if its against TOS to edit the code ?

(From Adsense Programme Policies

"Code Modification

Any AdSense ad code or search box code must be pasted directly into Web pages without modification. AdSense participants are not allowed to alter the ad code for any reason, include changing the ad layout, behaviour, targeting, or delivery of ads.")

 

Hmm, yes... you make a good point here.

I guess changing colors shouldn't be a problem maybe, hopefully.
When my application is hopefully being approved i will know more on this.

 

The code mod rule is to prevent ppl editing the code to make the ads open in new windows or change the behaviour or layout of the ads. Almost all publishers edit the colour codes to make the ads blend. In the google AdSense code making page you can enter your own HEX codes when making the ad, editing the HEX values in the code is just doing the same but quicker.

So it is OK to edit the following:
google_color_border = "FFBB00";
google_color_bg = "FFD0AA";
google_color_link = "000066";
google_color_url = "222222";
google_color_text = "222222";

as long as you use genuine 6 digit hex codes. which you could always find here:
Blue HEX codes: http://www.december.com/html/spec/color3.html

Which was a "I feel lucky" on google for "hex colour codes"

 

Thats something useful for me .

My site has been designed by someone whom I have never met. I always had trouble trying to explain to her, about what colours I wanted.

 

Pffwjhu, (wiping the sweat of my head )

Thanks for clearing that up Critters

 

Use any color you like and then when you get adsense account just change the colors of your ads from manage colors options. You can use any color. No problem.
