    Does anybody know if Google has any problem in making the url at the bottom of adsense ads invisible by making them the same color as the background?

    I haven't checked that, but I don't think so... wasn't the color autmatically adjusted according to the background, so that you can't hide text?

    Thats true, i tried to do that 1 minute ago, it didn't work, if the background is white and you want to do this trick, the url will be black.
    So nice try, eh....fooling Adsense ain't easy is it.

    Isn't it against the TOS anyway?

    Can you not choose a color that would result in a color that is not sticking out that much?

    I have seen this before but it takes some time to find the right color for your site because you have to find the exact opposite of the hex color value.

    Does anyone know how to find the opposite value of a hex color code?

    If you don't want a URL to show... pick the leaderboard ads.
