AdSense

both AA ones look like crap imo

 

[LazyHippy]

Prob Adsense, although with it's images AA can look good blended in. Not that it matters if the ads aren't relevant!

I liked the huge CTR that I used to get on the Chitika eMiniMall ads for the first month that I ran them, before they audited and the revenue sucked.

I like the design of the new and improved AuctionAds but I can't get over the distortion that a lot of the images have.

still adsense for me... you can still pick diff. format...

From a pure design standpoint, my vote is for Adsense.

Would I use the AuctionAds? Definitely, given the right target visitor and content. Of course I also prefer to skip the middleman if possible. I could use my own eBay affiliate ID and use one of their widgets. Or mpire has some good shopping widgets too. Of course they are both Javascript. So loading can be slow.

Vote for Adsense, because it's very customizable without any fuzz

 

[Icecube]

adsense for sure
the only thing that adsense could improve in their ad formats would be the possibility to choose custom sizes, and make the font standard for all the formats

getting 728x90 banners with a font and skyscrapers with another sucks

Im not a huge fan of auction ads to be honest. I like google adsense they kind of just blend in and don't look like ads. Just my opinion.
