    ok, i have placed a link unit 120x90 in my new site (still under construction)
    at http://make-money-online.007ihost.com/

    its at the left column, at the top. it looks werid. the background is blue instead of white and its not 120x90.

    does anyone know the problem? i tried looking at the html, css, no luck. the preview in frontpage shows correctly, but when uploaded just looks way wrong. i generated the code like 10 times, still got this error. even changed the template, nothing works.

    oh wait, the prob is fixed now. really strange. i switched back to firefox to fix a minor layout issue and found the link fixed. all i did was enclose the ads code with a span tag. it was there earlier with the problem, i removed it and it didn't help. now it helps. hmm.

    think it might be a cache issue in firefox, though i did clear them. probably forced FF to clear their cache again by switching to IE (i am using the IE tab add-on)

    i advise you to use a diffrent format for your adlink.
    Your site menu looks exactly like the ad-link.
    Thats not really against the TOS but it makes your website look spammy..

    I'm not sure it's a cache issue, though I did have a similar problem at some point when testing out formats. I got stuck with one, and no matter how many times I "fixed it" nothing changed.

    Now when I get "problems" like that I totally close down FF and reload it.

    really? oh well, i thought it is really good blending :(
    i seen a rather reputable SEO site that has even better blending than mine for the link unit. i copied their blending idea. thats the only site so far that i clicked its adsense ads on thinking its their own link.

    and yes, my site is working. its under free web hosting so i can't get a custom 404. thats how these free web host earn their bucks i guess. i haven't done up the pages, but its almost fix now. i haven't really completed the site actually. its like 1 week old

    that was 2 months ago, can't really remember the site. i know i got it from google search. it had some seo tools that i tried but didn't really bother to use. can't find it in my bookmarks either, strange.

    i dun really visit SEO sites nowadays. been learning from this forum right now. those sites don't really update as much as forums and blogs do.
