It's brilliant. love it....
Way to go Sabco Art ... :)
Smart. I love it too!
can someone please explain me this ad?
It's for the mobile brand oman, which brand color is orange. the stripes on the road are a symbol, that you can communicate wherever you go (or drive).
but what kind of sign is at the bottom?
thanks for help.
sign = coverage strength
i think it's a sign or signal like in the cellphone, they want to say that wherever you are, they can
reach you =P
Sorry, but the copy is so weak.
Terrible. Come on Ivan. You are putting up with too many cheesy ones. You gotta be Ivan the Terrible at times :-)
Sheer creativity... very powerful idea, never expected this kind of work from Oman
Not the country, but the people make the difference. A true creative person will show his talent even in Timbuktu.
cool

good work. simple and clean.
Very simple message shown in a very simple way. Nice.
Nice, but I've seen it done before in Panama.
And to answer the question "but what kind of sign is at the bottom?"
That's the sign that indicates the strenght of the signal in your phone.
Nic idea but i dont like the art direction
Nice .... but maybe you can convince Oman Mobile to change their logo!
The black and white plus orange is very much like ORANGE. Art direction is poor.
BASHAR, if you don't like being criticized, don't criticize others work. To my opinion, this is far better than your trash idea.
If you think that the trash idea was my idea, then I think you have a look again and this time put your glasses on and see who did it. If you think criticizing people personally is ok, and criticizing the work is not ok, then please keep your comments to your self.
it's good... because it's done in Oman. Kudos to the creative team and keep trying.
Yes it’s a nice visual for ‘continuous coverage’ I like the B/W contrasts simplifying the message delivery rather than forcing it even harder in color.

This is an excellent piece of communication for the intelligent mobile users (almost all mobile users who matter are intelligent today, I suppose!!)
Visually brilliant, treatment very good, copy just adds to the message for the comprehension of the uninitiated TA. The campaign is very very extendable and could go on and on like "Nokia - Communicating People"
Only, it waits to be seen whether the client or the servicing people have the vision to take it to it's otherwise prosperous destiny.
And yes, as a consumer, I do not agree that the copy is weak, and neither I agree that the art direction weak.
Kudos to the creative team!!
Great idea. They could have taken a better photo though. I reckon that they could have dropped the white box at the bottom as well.

this idea has alredy been done a year ago by ONM delhi for hutch- wherever you go our network follows . kaun hai wo lodru bhenchod,,.................
Dear friend, please don't abuse! This ad was first publised on February 2005 in Times of Oman.
Maybe at the same time O&M came up with the same idea...but it's not a copy. This is not the first
time two simillar ideas have been published in two different parts of the world.
And so what? It's still a good ad. The problems start when people start copying shit ads. Or even worse, copying already shit ads.
