Hello My this site www.prabh.info that design has got image surrounding the main ad w and adsense TOS says that [QUOTE-Adsense TOS]https://www.google.com/adsense/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=48182 "May not direct user attention to the ads via arrows or other graphical gimmicks" "May not place misleading images alongside individual ads"[/QUOTE] Guys What do you say?
I think to be safe, you need to contact adsense support and confirm. And surrounding is directing user attentions a little bit.
Sorry, I don't think it is ok, virtually all in the lay-out draws the attention to the main ad, in the first few seconds I really was convinced this is the point where I have to click so that something happens. Perhaps if you make the ad a bit smaller and put it more in the top right corner? SY
