Title
Reducing pixel height of advertisements in the Generator layout

Short, concise description of the idea
Slightly minimized ad height on Generator

Full description of the idea
Generator is my preferred layout for its symmetry and simplistic appearance. Recently imposed advertisements by LiveJournal makes the layout look haphazard and lessens the appeal. I'm not saying there should be no ads. I'm saying they should be modified to accomodate the layout by reducing the height by several pixels. See the prototype of my suggestion here:

This image represents the current state of advertisements in the Generator style: http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k305/idiotjesus/screenshots/generator_1.jpg

This is the mockup of what I propose: http://i91.photobucket.com/albums/k305/idiotjesus/screenshots/generator_2.jpg

As you can observe, little of the original advertisement is changed and the appearance of the layout is ultimately improved.
