I like it but I'm not sure why the ads have a white background

I think it's a god strong design, but I'd just make the nav look a little nicer. ATM it doesn't really sit too well.

do you mean the features? The ads have orange backgrounds. I wanted something to make the ads stand out a little more and not get so lost inthe content. As for the white/grey hover on the features, I just havent changed that yet.

thanks for looking!

No the ads you see do, using image ads they won't have transparent backgrounds and some will be a small piece of coloured text on a white background and stand out a mile. I'd stick to text only with the background the same orange as your background.

do you not see ads at all? Im confused. It sounds as though everyone is seeing something differenta s far as the ads go. I have looked at the site on ie7, opera, and mozilla and it looks normal and shows ads....
