I don't understand. What is the objective here?

The background is that: Movement of Free Tibet lies, it does not tells world a true Tibet.

the objective is: tell world a true Tibet, and someone are lying.

of course i know,
but i want to know what you want us to know through the pics

so just pretend u are telling someone who dont know anything about people getting ambushed by mobs.

pretend i dont know anything, tell me who is lying and whats the lie about.

don't make ads out of your personal believes! especially when they are political - you are in the wrong forum, dude!

to gmint7 :

"tell me who is lying and whats the lie about."

here is not the suitable place to answer so simple questions. the important thing is that before you say anything about China and Tibet, please go to there yourself.

to Wordnerd:

"don't make ads out of your personal believes!"

the base of my ads is not my believes but the fact that you can get yourself in Tibet.

my camera is not able to lie.

" especially when they are political - you are in the wrong forum, dude!"

adsoftheworld.com published many political ads against China and Beijing Olympic.

I meant, you have no client for this exept yourself. And this makes it political.

And yeah, cameras don't lie, but they just show a small part of the whole. you find happy people everywhere. with a good photographer you could advertise guantanamo as a holiday paradise

Of course, nobody pays for these ads.

Free Tibet movement said there is a genocide in Tibet, not in Tibet jails. So I show you what I saw in Tibet.

guantanamo is paradise, but jails in guantanamo not.

What i saw is not secret, and not special as well, any normal tourist can see same thing in Tibet.

I took these photos just for fun last year, not for these ads. I always criticise Chinese government, it hate me. I do not make these ads for Chinese government, but for truth.

in China, Han is the majority race (i am Han, Chinese president is also Han), Han family can only have one child, but minority race family can have two to four children, and in Tibet, no limit at all.

If there is "genocide" in China, the victim is not minority races, but Han race!

Do you know this fact?

CNN and BBC have ever reported this important facts?

What are you trying to advertise here? You obviously have strong views based on how you are defending your work, but at the end of the day, are you advertising tourism to this region? A product? A service? The only advertising I can think of on AOTW regarding Beijing and Tibet etc is stuff done for Amnesty International, but that was actually an ad.

This looks like a political flyer to me, the kind you usually have freaky people handing out to anyone who will take them, whilst shouting slogans at the top of their voices.

Apart from lacking someone actually doing the advertising: what is the idea here? I don't think you have one. What is your message? People in Tibet are happy and things are peachy? That's what it looks like you're trying to say, to me, from the happy people in your photos.

Try turning your views into an idea, and an advert. You haven't done that here.

I know that you have a lot of feelings you want to express that we all here do not know (maybe something info that the news didnt cover) .. coz news sometimes only cover one side of the coin ..

But the point I (i think wearmy, and wordnerd too) am trying to say is just

=> your "ad" isn't telling us that yet <=

i'd be interested if you want to share and tell us more stories : )

my idea is that: The Tibet I have seen is quite different from what described by free tibet movement and in western press.

my target audience is who knows what reported by western media about Tibet and China. These ads perhaps are difficult to be understood by other people. i'm sorry.

thank you for your criticism and suggestions. I'll try my best to make better ads.
