I like the illustrations and the idea/sentiment behind it. I think that works. However, I think the execution is too negative.

I would have preferred to show how the kids benefit from somebody helping the hospital. Show someone helping the poor kid catch butterflies or playing a game with the girl with a broken leg. I think the problem is emphasised too much at the expense of the solution.

- The only thing more rare than a good ad is a good guest comment -

I agree with your comment, but I love this "- Commenting in all caps with poor spelling and grammar is so done before -" haha, I hope some of those jerks read that :-)

I agree as well. I love the illustration. The sentiment is great, but I think spinning it in a more positive way would make people feel more inclined to help to spread cheer instead of inclined to help to feel less guilty.

"Sonja looked at the Twister sheet with unrepentant disgust. 'DAMN YOU, MILTON BRADLEY!' she shouted as she waved her crutch, 'DAMN YOU FOR TWISTING MY ANKLE! AS GOD IS MY WITNESS, I WILL NEVER PLAY TWISTER AGAIN!"

Sorry Dale, SeanMartin's comment was too funny and I believe it would not have had the same impact had it been lower case.
