What the hell? The exact same visual, only as a photograph, has already been done. And featured on this site. Is amnesia contagious?

First, for God's sake correct the spelling of "phoeticide". It's foeticide. Second, the idea of a turning a female sign into a cross is three years old. Move on guys. I've seen better renditions, and this made to the front page. Duh...

Dips dont be a pussy give some commets which are worth reading.

I agree

a) this is the first idea that comes to your mind

b) It's been done over and over and over in different ways

But having said that and prob will by other people on this site, It's executed really well.

Good job Binu.

Nice ad. Its sad that the people who talk has nothing to show the world their works. I feel it is well executed. Have not seen this ad anywhere. Ivan you have selected nice works from around the world. Ivan i think you put an end to the morons who get nasty. They are of no use. Well done O&M good work. Guys get jealous about O&M dont they...

great work guys. nice way of bring the message..

Guest's picture

I can't say that I agree about "bringing the message". Same message one more time... With a situation like this (in India and other countries) I think we have to really chock!! So, I see this ad. And what? It's not gonna make me care more. The intended recipients are certainly aware of the problem. I'd like some more "Imagin yourself newly born" and then...like a shovel or something and a photo of a hole. I don't know, but not that! Ya'll remember the "How I killed my husband"-campaign in Singapore?? Now THAT made people continue reading.
