A leaderboard under the navbar is a popular position.

I have the best results from the ad locations in my Mustang site. It's the perfect balance. Not too many but not skipping out on any either.

That one has always performed well for me, also I have done pretty well showing a leader board after the first post and the last post in a thread. All 3 are only shown to guest and are Adsense ones only. I do have private ads and a couple of affiliates in the right column.

I like to go for the one line text ads under posts, usually after every second post as your impressions go up 5 times as quick if you have 10 posts per page. there not unsightly either

I like the after 1st post as well.
Example: PROMOTE THRU FORUMS : Promotion
I don't really track the clicks because I am advertising my own sites... but the way I see it at least, the ads stick out the most this way while not being too intrusive.

I have 2 leaderboards below the title, and another leaderboard placed after the first post. Dont know how effective its going to be, as I am new to this. I will give a feedback once I get a hang of it.
