How are ads like this performing? Not so good? Good? Excellent? Better than other forum ad formats?

@DefenceTalk
To answer your question...I just installed the ads about 12 hours ago and the results are AWESOME! I've earned much more revenue today than I normally would have. I absolutely LOVE this mod.


@eXtremeTim
This is a GREAT mod but I would like to see some changes in this mod. I would like there to be 2 seperate templates for the 2 ads or even make it customizable to have 3 since I think 3 ads is the limit you can have perpage. The reason for seperate templates is so you can track which ads and which location of ads are making you the most money. When you can track (using the channels) your ad revenue, you can maximize your earnings.

Also, sometimes the ads are showing up in btwn some forums that I didn't indicate them to be btwn...anyone else having that problem? And I've also noticed that sometimes the ads aren't showing up...I looked at the code and I nothing jumped out at me...but do you have it so that the ads are "hidden" at times?

Again, great mod! I highly recommend this, especially since this isn't violating adsense's TOS. I've earned quite a bit more money today than I normally would and I'm lovin' it Thanks!!!!!!!!

Oh yes, my ads are not listed.
This hack is a violation of Google's TOS.
I took the "extra 5 minutes" and contacted them to make sure it is ok. I even sent them a screen shot to better illustrate the ad placement.


This is a violation, but I know this is not intended to be solely for Google Ads.

If you use this hack and Google, and they find out about it, you better be ready to kiss your adsense account good bye.

nice , thanks

Many other publishers require different code for different ad placements..
for example i use this hack with adbrite and it displays same ads on both the units.. is it possible to use different codes for different ad units.?

Just to clarify about google adsense (even though the guy stated it a few posts above me), but they just updated the TOS and they do not allow any images next to your ads to make it look like its a link on your website.
