Default Possible to change Ad background color or not?

Is it possible to change the white background of the google ads to match my site's background? The white is just not cool with the rest of the site so I'm just wondering.

Thanks in advance. ^^

Most of the time, google ad's usually use the colours of the skin.
Have you made the skin or did you get it off Fmods or Puddles skinning?

Members don't have direct access to the google ad's, otherwise some members may remove them.

I know exactly why the background is white. Your default style is based off of subSilver, but you just changed the colors to make it appear different. PC is right about the Ads attempting to match the color of your style, but you don't have access to edit the correct file to do this. So your members are seeing the custom color, but google is still seeing the default background color of subSilver which is white. You might want to try a different style if the white Ad is bothering you that much.

Ah, that is unfortunate. I did use subSilver but changing to a different style is so not worth that. No problem ^^ it's not bothering me much at all anyway. I just wondered about it.

Thank you both for the help!
