    Okay... But notice that you didn't remember what product the advertisement was actually for. So I'd say the ad actually kinda failed.

    I rarely notice product names anymore... I've trained myself to be immune to advertising :)

            Ok, one of the guys at work showed me this advertisement for something or other... Let me describe it, since I don't have the actual image handy... Hot woman, laying down with her hair splayed out, seductive pose... Image only shows down just below the neck, so no clothes visible. The kind of image that if extended downward would be more suited to Playboy. And the caption?

            You know you're not the first But do you really care?

            I believe the ad was for used cars. And here is the image: http://ladg.files.wordpress.com/2008/08/2764717829_ccbdf07e3a.jpg[^]

                  Yep, that's the one! Except it had a second line of print... Next post below has it with the whole thing.

                    heh. I took a Heineken marketeer to task over the very same thing. She'd put together a beautiful ad, with beautiful women taking their beautiful clothes off and jumping into a beautiful mountain spring, ending with a beautiful close-up of one of their really beautiful faces. All that was needed was for the beautiful lips on that beautiful face at the end to utter the name of the beautiful product... But they didn't -- FAIL! What's not annoying is that I can't remember the name of the product, now. It's a soft drink, not a beer. <Googles> Rivella. It's probably on YouTube, because it was shown for a month or two.

                      Ye Gods! "Optimising" a model's looks with Photoshop is one thing, but you'd think they'd have got someone over the age of three to do it! What a mess!
