Would this be allowed?

Looks ugly because I just used paint to copy and paste the imgs. It's not on the actual website. I wanted to make sure first it doesn't break the rules.

So what is your thought? Can I place these images near the ad? They have nothing to do with the ads, the top pic is a random picture from the gallery, and the bottom one is advertising for one of our services.

Please, take a good look and use your best judgment.
Thanks!

 

the top one looks ok but they might not approve of the bottom one because it is pointing to the ad

 

Oh, I can just direct the arrow to right > instead.

 

it will be confusing and you are breaking the rules on different ways,
1. arrow in pic,
2. if this ad is text only then ok other wise make clear border between google pic ad and your image ad

 

its not allowed dude its confusing to readers

 

Hmm alright. Not very pleased to hear that, I figured that would be quite a good placement for that site.

 

Hi,
I'm pretty sure the rule applies to any kind of images. Google doesn't care if the image is related to the ad or not. It's the fact off any image being near an ad they have issues with. Read sticky on this subject in adsense section in this forum.
