"It's a mountain. Not an ashtray." ----> You are explaining the visual!
If it would be a good picture or idea, you shouldnt need to explain it.
ABSOLUTLY
Does the logo look like a bra to anyone else or is it just me
-SCRATCH 'N' SNIFF
Agreed,
a good visual would speak for itself
Devil is in the details,
Lets keep it simple!

Table Mountain,Cape Town
What mountain a what a? Thanks for playing. You'll go home with some great prizes.
The thing is every year, people throw cigarette butts on the mountains hiking trails, which causes fires, I think that's the proposition. Also that's the shape of the mountain..one of the 7 wonders mate.wake up.
The mountain is Cape town's Table mountain which caught a light when a British tourist tossed his but into the veld and started a fire. Very nice.
I'm British and it looks like an ash tray to me. Maybe that's the problem - Change the shape of the mountain and stop confusing us tourists.
It's an ashtray. Not a mountain. Do better artwork and ideas.
Is it undignified to comment on one's own agency's work? Well, here goes. I think the copyline is just right, tonally - as it was meant to be admonishing people who throw cigarette butts from their car windows as they speed along the mountain highway. I am also against "show and tell", but I don't think it is a problem in this case.
No. It's an ashtray.
hahaah yeah I first saw a bra or penis XD
erm...I'm stuip or anyone else didn't get it?
not about the garbage in national parks
don't like it definitely.
