i'll be honest, im a noob at all this, which is why im asking for help huh
ok so i'm thinking of making a somewhat simple website that is just lists of funny pictures, that users can submit. If anybody thinks this is a bad idea please let me know.
Anyways, im planning to use it for adsence. Obveously im going to include room for while im making it, however I have a few questions about adsence.
1. Can i apply for adsence before the site is made? like i may own the domain, but the site isn't made yet. what about, the site's made but pictures are not added yet.
2. it says i'm not supposed to click on the links. Will I get insta-banned if i do? how would they know? i meen, i'm probably going to click on em a few times to see how their workin and what not, or possibly people using this computer. does that prose a problem?
3. What size (width/hieght) should i keep empty for putting ads in? can i change the size's of them, or how does that work?

No need to apply first. First thing you have to do is.. see the adsence adslot's dimensions. Design your layout placing those size boxes first. after registering domain name, apply for the adsense.
finally at launching time replace your add-blocks with real adsense code.
any doubt ask again.

DO NOT CLICK YOUR OWN ADS

they aren't joking.. you get a couple of whoops but don't make it more than 2-3 every year or so.

alright ty

how do they know when you click your own ads?
is it ip related?
if my friends on a different computer in the house click it...?

oh, and my bad but i just remmembered the one other question i had.
i see it also has the option of a google search bar.
When people submit images, i will have them include a description of the picture. Can I use the google search bar to search for pictures using thoes descriptions, or are there better ways for doing that?
