Is there a way to edit title text color of Adlinks?

For eg. the part which says "Ads By Google"

Also, what is the secret to changing the font, font line spacing/kearning, etc?

I was thinking about the same thing but i dont think you can edit the font size and spacing.

And for the title, there is no way to change the ads by google i guess. They are all black in color.

That's the thing, I seen that they are different on some sites.

The AdSense code automatically chooses a color that stands out.

Usually it's black, but if you have a dark background it will change to white. (I haven't seen any other colours though)

I'm puzzled that anyone can't figure out how to edit the colors. On the Ad Layout page, you just have to choose a color palette that you like. If the standard palettes available don't work for you, create a custom palette.

And no, you aren't allowed to change the font or kerning.

You can change the color of the text and links but not the color of "google ads" just go into the html and change the 6 digit color code to whatever you want... and can do the same with the backgound color.. but only in the html code...

Sorry, but you CAN change the color of "Ads by Google" too. I know, because I've done it. You can do it by using or creating a color palette that works for you, or as noted you can edit the HTML directly--but be sure you never edit anything but the color codes. If you are at all unsure about how to do so, work with the color palettes in the Ad Layout area.

Are you sure you can change the text color of Ads by google? I mean normally they are black, but are you allowed to change to something like red?

I dont think so, because if you can, you can change the background color and the ads by google will disappear into the background color. I dont think this makes sense.

Usually it's black, but if you have a dark background it will change to white. (I haven't seen any other colours though)

This makes more sense. I guess the text may change to something contrastly to the background but you cannot control the color of the text.

Added: Ok, i just noticed that the Ads by google will change to white when they are in dark color background and vice versa. So there is no way to change the color except black or white.

No, you can not. Maybe it was possible in the past, but not now.

OK, sorry, now I understand. I thought you were asking about changing the color of the border in which "Ads by Google" appears. You can make that border any color you like, but yes, the actual text of "Ads by Google" will always show up in either black or white, depending on which gives a better contrast.

Seriously, I have tried all of that ages ago, in the "Ad Layout Page", editing custom pallettes, but I could only manage to change the color of everything, except the "ads by gooogle" header.

Although I felt stupid for asking, I just thought that someone might know something about this.
