While choosing a color palette for a new ad, my hand slipped and accidently selected several palettes simultaneously. To my surprise, each color variable in the code updated to become an array of colors. The interface will allow you to select up to four palettes. The code it produces looks like this:

google_color_border = ["DDAAAA","578A24","191933","660000"];
google_color_bg = ["ECF8FF","CCFF99","333366","7D2626"];
google_color_link = ["0033FF","00008B","99CC33","FFFFFF"];
google_color_url = ["0033FF","00008B","FFCC00","DAA520"];
google_color_text = ["000000","000000","FFFFFF","BDB76B"];

Google choose one of the palettes at random when the ad is displayed. Is anybody using this or have I just noticed the obvious?

I've used that in the past but I've never seen all of the color combinations I chose get displayed. I picked 4, saw 2.

I have made a simple script to select a color combination... :) I didn't know this is possible without coding.

Yes, you can select up to four ad palettes, and it will rotate randomly between them.

From the control panel:
Select a color palette for your ads. Hold down the Control or Command key to select multiple palettes that will rotate randomly on your web page.
