Default Re: suggestion... dono where to post

So far Google ads inserted by Forumer.com (even in this vBulletin-driven forum) use this HTML / JavaScript code:
HTML Code:
<div align=center> <script type="text/javascript"><!--
 google_ad_client = "pub-5207631766608049";
 google_alternate_ad_url = "http://www.forumer.com/banners/altad.html";
 google_ad_width = 728;
 google_ad_height = 90;
 google_ad_format = "728x90_as";
 google_ad_channel ="4610594389";
 google_color_border = "FFFFFF";
 google_color_bg = "FFFFFF";
 google_color_link = "6A9CDD";
 google_color_url = "6A9CDD";
 google_color_text = "000000";
 //--></script>
<!--AD_B-->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://pagead2.googlesyndication.com/pagead/show_ads.js">
</script>
<!--AD_E-->
</div> 
All google_color_* variables are customizing the colours of ads. Take a look at the ads below the menu line in this forum (switch off the ad-blockers for a minute ). The background color (green) perfectly matches that one of the forum! So it is possible! I've changed the colours by editing the HTML source and reloading from cache and it worked as well.

This can be done but may not be easy. It requires an additional table for each skin with ad's parameters and a check what skin is currently used or user fields in ACP to select preferred colours (white on white ) because some skins allow to change their colours... Concluding: this won't be done (most probably).

Fortunately for me DAJ_Glass skin has already white background, so the ads (on white backround) blend with my forum's skin.

BTW, ads in this forum obscure the menu - I cannot see the whole search box or shop menu! (in Opera and IE)
