Google Adsense transparent background - adsense

How to make the Google Adsense block transparent?
It uses iframe, and resides on other domain, so jQuery can't do anything. I tried to target it with css, but that's also impossible. Any ideas?
I'm not trying to game adsense system, simply I've a background image, and with solid fill the ad looks disgusting.

I think some other people have answered correctly that you can't really do this. But what really is the root problem here? You are trying to avoid the ad looking bad on a background image.
simply I've a background image, and with solid fill ad looks disgusting!
Well, why not add some sort of effect that is strictly on your page but makes the ad simply look better. I'm thinking the easiest way to do this is with a box shadow: http://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/css-box-shadow/
Here are some examples of what such an effect might look like:

This is a famous question asked in years. The answer is " YOU CANNOT "
(at least for normal account)
Why? Because if can, then so easy to cheap and trick people to click

While you may not be attempting to game the system, many, many others have. As a result, Google uses an iframe to strictly limit what you can modify - they can't possibly do this on a case-by-case basis, so quite frankly Google should not allow this. You cannot set a transparent background, only a solid color of your choosing.

determining vertical vs horizontal photo in Zapier

I am receiving iPhone photos from the Sendblue messaging service and need to determine if they’re vertical or horizontal. This seems like it should be really easy but is giving me trouble. They’re in a CDN (link to example photo).
Any solution would be good, ideally it's something simple and doesn't require another app. Seems like this should be much easier than it is not sure what I'm missing.
So far I’ve tried this post and the CLI that resulted from it, but when I try to add it doesn’t show up in my apps.
I also tried the “mallabe” Zapier app, but it’s saying the photo isn't “publicly accessible”. This confuses me as the photo seems accessible to anybody I send it to.
AirEXIF is another solution I am looking into, I just applied to use their app so waiting to hear back on that front (not much activity from them recently so hoping they're still around).

Is there a script or an add-on that can override ALL tumblr themes to something simple?

I am annoyed by the complexity of tumblr. themes, especially those that remind me of furniture stores and take ages to load. I want to browse, not to get lost, go back to the front page each time and read stuff stuck to the right side of the screen, written in a tiny wee so-2002 font. Is there a way to make them all look super-simple, e.g. with a title, a simple column and pagination? Not as simple as in the mobile app (I hate endless scrolling), but somewhat close.
Thanks for any possible idea!

How can I auto-modify an image?

The question I am asking is a little bit abstract, so I will try to make it more clear. There are websites where you sign up and get a signature in the format of an image. It has a general format, say a few boxes that are empty, and a logo in the middle. Now, say you gain the "Overachiever" badge, which looks like a pen. You signature is then updated, automatically, to include that pen badge in one of the blank boxes. I am completely clueless as to how to do this, and in what language to do this is, so can anyone help? I have been thinking about PHP as an option, but I do not know if that would work. Any suggestions?
You can do this with PHP (imagecreate) and for the updates in your images you can use cronjobs.
Is this for a forum? Depending on the platform, I know some hosts already have "addon's" that provide similar functionality to what you're after. (Karma addons etc.)
Maybe one of these will help? phpBB has some stuff like that.

If you can execute an external process, you can do this using Image Magick.

New facebook application width to be 520px only?

I'm about to make a facebook application and I'm confused about what width I can design for. It seems that at the moment you have 760px at your disposal, but a lot of sources say this will be reduced to 520px in the beginning of 2010. Being halfway through 2010 already, I'm wondering if this is really happening? 520px seems very little? Does anyone know if and when the change will happen? What will happen to existing applications that are wider?
The 520px width is in reference the Application-Specific Tabs, not Applications proper.
Applications still use the full 760px width.
I've no idea what they intend, so take this with a pinch of salt. (Similarly, treat any assertions by non-Facebook staff with a heavy amount of cynicism - those crazy Zuckerbergites work in strange ways...)
Anyway, the last time they introduced a new width, they gave developers the option to stick with the old width system.
In fact, that option is still there (in the app settings):
Given that that option is still there, I'd cautiously suggest that:
They're not realistically planning another change any time soon.
If they do, they won't force it on developers
Hope this helps.

MySource Matrix - Opinions

Has anyone had experience with MySource Matrix as a content management system? If so, thoughts/opinions/comments?
Thanks in advance.
Absolutely excellent. It takes little while to get used to how it does things with its asset structure, but it is really flexible and powerful. Simple edit interfaces are great too.
Make sure you give it enough hardware. If you want dynamic content without caching you need heaps of grunt to make it hum.
Hands down the best CMS I have ever used. We use it on the Pacific Union College website, as well as many side projects. I am still amazed at all it has to offer compared to other products that are not free.
Give it a good look, and take some time to get past the learning curve, but once you do, it will be more than worth it. :)
I've recently been trying to use it in an organization where many non power users are generating content. - it has many interface bugs and odd behavior, so that many simple tasks (i.e. loading images) often have to be done by an power user (i.e. me).
When you are editing the HTML of page content white space is not preserved. If you where to format the HTML in the WYSIWYG editor, save you changes, and then come back the whitespace you've added will be removed - actually when you switch the WYSIWYG editor into HTML mode it doesn't show you the exact HTML, and does some silly things - like pressing enter inserts non breaking spaces - but doesn't show them until you save and re-enter HTML mode.
it is a number of little details like this which make it generally frustrating to use and disliked by everyone here.
