I was over at blog.outer-court today and I could not believe my eyes when I read this. My jaw literally dropped! Something that adsense site owner’s like to do is put pictures next to adsense which helps the click through rate as people tend to identify pictures with links next to them which is a sneaky way to improve CTR that is prohibited in googles TOS.  Here is an example of an adsense site owner placing ads next to images to improve ctr.

So google seems to have done something amost exactly against its OWN TOS. I guess its ok if google does it but NOT us.

This is what they have to say about their own images next to advertisers.
