    Test ads for sure . For image ads there are few advertisers and the cost per clicks is also low . I used them for a month time and they are not worth it .

    Text ads for sure. If you need money then go for text ads.

    The best way is to test both of them yourself. It also depends on the layout,colors,position. People do get results from image ads, however text ads seem to work better for me.

    Text Ads work best for most people. Text Ads pay higher too.
    You should try both for a week, then decide which works best for you.

    Text Ads.. it has better CTR and choices for visitors.
    Though Image Ads has its own advantages.

    I think most people would go for text ads. If you have dating or arcade site, also image ads could be good choice.

    Text ads pay better and usually have a higher CTR. I mix them because in my opinion it makes your website look like a MFA or just cheap if you have all text links everywhere.

    When I was still using AdSense, text ads always paid better. To be honest, I am not sure why Google added the ability to publish image ads, though I suspect it was more to satisfy AdWords advertisers.
