done, exactly same product. can't remember where. and also, i think this seems like a first idea nowadays.

Think it for a while.
Then, in anytime, it will come to your mind as an idea.

ha ha ha ha ha ha.. well done.. I was looking for these only. copy cats :)

ideas....30 minutes nahi toh free.

Totally different idea. Those were done by guys with ridiculous names like "Guilherme", "Lutz", and "Tiago". This was done by a guy with a real name like "Chris".

Esta buena! la gráfica simple como manda el producto.

Pero, la manzana que tengo en mi laptop es porque está fallada?

My problem with this is that it suggests that a new Mac is defective, and has to be repaired to be made whole.

again??? don't you guys never read award books? or just too many of them!?

So what that it was already done? As someone mentioned: Una idea vieja pero buena. That's trtue. The idea might be old but it's good and therefore timeless.

yeah that i agree.. but don't copy. Don't use timeless ideas to move up the corporate ladder. you'll fall eventually

I think 99% of the ideas that are the same weren't copied at all. It's just a nasty side effect of visually driven ads. I'm all for visual solutions, but there's a lot of room for some more experimentation. I just think it's time to slowly move away from these visual coincidences, there's very little new to be had in that area.

Guest's picture

So think I. I don't believe someone just ripped off the ad. I think everyone in the industry did an ad that was similar or very close to something already done. Yet doing a visual coincidence make "being done" even more likely.

Wonder if Apple has an interior date base of all their ads.

why do these copy cats get credit here, if more people see these examples there will be more and more copying, and everybody will jsut replace logos on old ads to get their fame here on this website, ivan, you need to institue the "copied" stamp on ads and not feature them on the main section of the homepage but instead in a separate hall of shame section
