    Use blue as title color and place the two ad blocks on top of the post.

    As I see it you currently have 4 blocks of google ads on your page. Keep in mind google only allows a maximum of 3.

    No i don't, I have 3 block units and 2 link units. where do you see more than three? I have a gray place holder at the top (which you may be counting as a 4th?) Im using that for internal promotion, not google a ad.

    Forgive me if I'm wrong.. But aren't link units counted separate than standard content units? Just like search is counted separate..

    Oh maybe, Im not sure about that. I just thought any visible ad was counted. Will probably have to search the adsense faq...

    FAQ says it ok, but do you think the ads that I have are a bit to much from a user experience standpoint? Thanks for your help.
