Ads are perfectly fine. Pretty much as long as you give us the credit
line, you can do whatever you want with it (or as
http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/ puts it, you are free to
share, transmit, re-use, modify, or adapt, even in a commercial
manner, as long as attribution is provided).

cheers.
