While I don't get that many people to my blogs I still wouldn't mind squeezing out a few more cents to pay the electricity bills.  Adsense provides a nice easy way to help, you provide the ads, people click on them, and google pays you.  With a little help from Bill Pierce I was able to get ads up and going within SubText.

The first step is to copy the skin file that you currently use.  I copied the origami skin, and made the copied folder named "origami-Ads".

Now you need to create the new entry within your Admin/Skins.config file.

Essentially you can just copy the existing skin "SkinTemplate" tag block and then change the Name and TemplateFolder attributes to point to the newly created folder.

Restart the web application through IIS or by modifying your web config.  The server otherwise will most likely cache the changes, and you'll need to wait a few minutes before proceeding.

Now within the newly created skin folder (I called mine origami-Ads) edit the PageTemplate_ascx file.  You can also modify the items in the Controls folder if you wish to add ads in custom spots.  I wanted mine at the top of the page and over on the sidebar so I coded it up like so.

One up top:

and then on the sidebar:

Good luck!
