    I actually really like the placement of ads on your blog! I think they are all quite inkeeping with the general design and I think that means that even though there is three in quite a confined space, they don't appear at all overwhelming.

    Looks fine.

    Maybe you can consider interchanging the navigation bar and ads.

    Usually people look at the left side of the page first.

    The amount of adsense ads look fine, they're blending pretty good in your layout. For your slogan under your site's name.. I would bring "Installations" down a line for better alignment.

    Thanks for all your feedback friends.

    I swapped the sidebars so now the ads appear at the left.

    The only thing I would do is change the title of the ads to the same colour as the titles on your website. This way the ads look like they are part of your site. This encourages more clicks throughs.

    Just swap the ad body and title colour around.

    Keen observation skills you have boomer. I did what you suggested for the left sidebar ads. Also made minor color changes to the ads in the header.

    Thank you.
