Earlier, while setting up another channel for one of my new sites, I have noticed this new option in the adsense set-up page which allows publishers to choose different corner styles for their ad unit in their adsense control panel. There are 3 options:
- Square corners (the ones we currently use)
- Slightly round corners
- Very rounded corners
