Then in the CSS file, you can specify the style of that div class.

Carol: Fair enough :)

And besides deleting them is too much work. I do however, change the style of the paid posts after 30 days to look more similar to the banner ads in my blog. It's automated so I don't have to do extra work. I don’t delete because as you said, it’s part of my blog. And besides deleting them is too much work.

Because it paid well? In my opinion, a post that isn’t worth keeping on your site after 30 days, isn’t worth writing in the first place.</i> I pick and choose. As I had said before I view it as a contract. I've been a paid writer for long enough - I'm not going to get my panties in a bunch over deleting a 100 word post about a coupon site, for instance. I mean really - how much heart and soul are you going to put into something like that? <i>I thought most of them stated that the post have to remain there permanently and will get banned if it is removed?</i> I've never seen that in any opp I've clicked on, but I supposed some advertisers might view it that way. And just for the record -- I have never recieved a ban and have only recieved 5-star reviews, so the people I've taken ads from don't seem to care. And I seriously doubt they're going back 40, 60, 100 days later checking for links. Of course I could be wrong and I probably am in some instances.
