it clearly breaks the tos it uses stuffed keywords to even get adsense ads at all because its just PICTURES
I think they put their resources mainly into chasing click fraud.
If that is so, I will straightaway get into building a couple of sites stuffed with keywords..I can safely assume I would not be banned.
OK i have reported this site 99999 times they keep ignoring it
You have been told a million times not to exaggerate. :)
the magic number is 10000, then they know you are serious, just one more time oughta do the trick ;)

Don't you know that odd numbers are the way to go [webmasterworld.com]? He should report them 99 999.95 times!
But seriously, flooding Google with reports won't help them. Sure, report each violation you see, and be as constructive and informative with each report as possible. Make it so the reviewer can simply verify what you have said and press the appropriate big red button. If they are still in the program, this likely means one of two things:
1) Google has yet to review your report. Multiple reports won't (well, shouldn't) help speed the process.
2) Google has decided to keep them in the program. Maybe they are just inside the boundaries of the TOS, or maybe they are making Google a whole bunch of money. Flooding reports won't help here either.
Perhaps it is like moltar said -- maybe they have been kicked. The bottom line is that it is more constructive (and probably more healthy) to report-and-forget, and then concentrate on making your own sites as good as possible. It's not worth stressing over.

Assuming you're serious, I wouldn't risk it. After all, you'd have no one to blame but yourself if you got kicked out. It's like cops and speeding tickets; they don't ticket everyone, but if one is ticketed they can't claim as a defense that others were also guilty but not ticketed.
BTW, I've seen picture sites get AdSense ads with just a page title and a picture title set to <h1>, and another did some trick with an iframe, so don't think picture sites can't get ads as it's simply not true.
As Incredri-Bill said, that is a search engine issue, not an Adsense issue.
Can't agree with that Bill...
"Site may not include:..."
"Excessive, repetitive, or irrelevant keywords in the content or code of web pages..."
Looks like an Adsense issue to me...

You miss my point.
Keyword stuffing was a SE issue long before AdSense came around so rat them out to the SE dept. to deal with as it's not as big an AdSense deal as "CLICK THE ADS" and other nonsense going on and probably went to the bottom of the heap.

Gregbo, I was not serious. I was actually countering the point that if that was indeed the case, everyone will be busy stuffing keywords.
Charming as ever...
Then just keep reportingi it or seek another advertising program.
We are not the place to report it. Thanks.
