What are the rules about having images next to ads?
Google says....
Because ads are dynamic, publishers should be very careful not to place images that could deceive users directly above the ads. Highly general "stock" images are less likely to be deceptive than very specific images that suggest a specific offering at the advertiser's site.
Maintain a visible border around ad units if you choose to experiment with placing images directly above the ad units. While I realize that this may reduce the effectiveness of the technique, it's important to strike a balance between the potential to overcome ad blindness and the possibility of confusing users.
Contrasting color border around the Adsense Ad block or a simple HR code between them will work. Don't make the images look like there part of the ads. E-mail Google if you're not sure.
