Is there a way so that I can add ads like google ads within the member profile area.
Example when a member looks at another members profile I can have rotating ads within the mebers profile area? A plugin would be nice... I am also playing with phpadsnew if I can figure out how to use the complicated system maybe use that to feed the ads? Any ideas

Not sure what kind of ads you're using, but if they're Adsense -- you can't put ads in a Member's profile because there's no relevant site content there.

Well, like I said, Adsense requires that their ads be placed on pages that have relevant content -- like threads or news. You can't have them on places like the UserCP, people's Profiles, etc...

Sure you can www.plentyoffish.com and myspace.com does it.... As long as in the member profile you have content regarding your site or other topics that can draw the correct google ads

Well you could just stick the adsense code in the memberinfo template.

Im kinda looking for a possible or available plugin.. I want the ads to be displayed and alligned properly. Maybe enabled for registered members and not for premium members? Any ideas

You mean you want it contained in a variable, like $ads? You could just use a simple conditional to show it for regular members and not for
premium members.

Can you provide me with a sample code that I would use just before my google ads code for standard and premium members?

<if condition="$bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==X>
AdSense Code Shown Because You're a Regular User.</if>

X is the UsergroupID of your regular users.
