Nice idea.
But trees don't really grow from the bottom.
Agreed.
Should have gone with some petrified wood. Hard to display that though I suppose.
I'm just gonna let that one slide...
This is cute!! : )
lol good point. But yeah nice idea :)
These are solid creatives, I'm surprised to see flawed logic...

c'mon guys. Haven't You ever seen a SMALL, young tree? This is good solid ad.

Looks great.
But small idea on a big tree.
wow. you actually spent time doing this ad without knowing how a tree grows. Ignoramus.
wow...u actually realised it after someone mentions about it? smart...
rockstar3 you have a defective, lazy brain. Quit now for god's sake.
We're going to need more lube.
Sometimes the 'logic' matters waaaaay too much to some people here.
Nice job.
>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.
I agree. Go Saints.
I've tipped them against the Bombers, Davosk!
>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.
I agree. It's because they have lazy brains.
We're going to need more lube.
Agree with Rog, once again. The first impression matters, no, wait a sec, does it? Yes.
Hey Rog what's happening? How bout them cats!
Oh yeah nice idea by the way!
brilliant???this is not unique...
well i have never seen a small tree (a young tree is better called a plant) in my entire life. idea is good but they shud have got their facts straight before implementing them
Now the clients are really gonna think ad people never finish school.
At least these guys did not.
Intelligent ads are the need of the hour.
Critic: But trees don't grow like that.
Creatives: We would now like to use our Creative License Card.
Critic: Fair enough.
Now that's logical thinking! ;)
Nice advert.
Thank, dogs for the tanks.
Maybe if the art direction was a bit more "unrealistic".
I don't know, an illustration maybe? Or just a crazier photo?
I still like the idea though. It's quick and funny.
Nice
great!!!
just superb.......................good job.keep it up.........i just love this

I like the idea. Very nice. Whether it is right or not, I think we can safely assume the audience are not anal enough to give a shit.
We're going to need more lube.
Does the ad tells its' point nicely? -Yes...
Is advertising all about solid logical facts? -No...
Does advertising uses exaggeration as a tool often? -Yes...
So?...
“Inspiration exists, but it has to find us working.” Picasso.
Totally agree with you.... Why is that ad people get into finding logic and flaws in ads? It's a nice ad, end of story...
and why is it that everyone is so up and ready to find flaws with other people's ads while their own are shite?
Do I sense a little bit of "I wish I thought of it, but since i didnt, let me just make it seem like a bad idea that's illogical?"
nice idea, make me smile, but rough photoshop, blur brush traces simply ugly! fix it

Los arboles no crecen asi, pero la idea esta chevre.
