Looks like Yahoo is now experimenting with their own background colors for search ads. Spotted by @tecnonetblog - Yahoo seems to be testing a green background color for their ads. Personally, I see a light blue colored background for Yahoo ads.

Here are screen shots of the test.

Google is frequently testing different colors and shades of backgrounds for their search ads, so this should come as no surprise.
