In a long line of Google Adsense updates, the latest update to hit the market is the new feature to add rounded edges to the boxy ad units. Google announced this morning the changes they made to the familiar format in hopes that it will prove to be a great addition to their service.
In the past, we were able to customize both size and colors. Now, we get to also customize the edges of the ad units by changing from square (standard) to rounded or very rounded. Here is the image they are displaying:
Keep in mind that the background color as well as the border color must be different to that of your site’s background color otherwise the new borders will not show. They urge you to keep in mind the “feel” that your site already has before deciding to change the corners of the units. If your site looks and blends better in the boxy scheme, then go with that. If not, try the new formats out! Let us know how it goes for you.

I wish they had added more size options as well but I guess we will wait and see. For the right site I’m sure the curve option is nice although most sites don’t use any boarders it seems.

That’s true, maybe with these new options, we’ll see the advent of borders once again!
