    I noticed a few days ago my ads changed a bit.. In the corner where it says "Ads by google" I think it use to look like text but now its more of an image what do you guys think of this?

    I think it looks better. It doesn't make much of a difference to me though.

    It looks far more better and I like the new one a lot.
    I just can't help clicking it.

    I think it's a bit sneaky by Google.
    For some add formats they have moved the 'adds by google text' from the top of the adds to the bottom of the adds. This means that with a bit of clever positioning you can use the fold to hide this part and users might think it is actually part of your site.

    So in the short term I think it is good for publishers & google
    In the long term I think it might hurt advertisers confidence in the network and this will cost us money
