wow... i seem to like this very much. such an amazing message. d best wwf ad according to me.
bt thats me! im waiting for wat everyone says..
~ old habits die hard, older ones never do ~
"We fight every day for our extinction"?
"We dream of a world that will have no more need of us"?
I get that the exact wording may be lost in translation, but the meaning goes right over my head. It's better to be extinct? Or maybe they mean it's better that being extinct becomes extinct...?
Yeah, it should be 'against' extinction, shouldn't it?
Besides the red copy... very good.

its quite simple, the last line of d bodycopy answers all ur questions...
~ old habits die hard, older ones never do ~
this is really very nice. makes me sad for the pandas...
sad 4 d pandas? dude, it talks of d extinction of wwf itself as an organisation, not pandas. i wonder y havn't u guys got d idea
~ old habits die hard, older ones never do ~
i didnt catch that at ALL.
okay my lovelies, WWF would like the world to no longer need their services. they dream of a day when no animal in is need of saving, no animal is in danger of being extinct. that is why they are "fighting for their extinction". the line is supposed to make us scratch our head and read on to get what they mean by that odd statement.
Savvy?
ps. i like the ad.
OOOH, clever.
Oh! I get it now. I think something was lost in the translation. They should maybe have replaced one "we" with "WWF", to make it that much clearer.
I like the idea of the ad. Or should I say the ideal?
Really nice idea, not communicated as well as it could have been.
What is this, WWF week?
Any advice?
I think the headline just needs re-working. Seems it's got a few confused (though this is almost inevitable).
Maybe 'We believe some things should be extinct.' Then first line of body copy reveals that they're actually talking about themselves. Just my first thought ...
I like the ad. I think the copy is brilliant, even though some of its power may have been lost in the translation. You can't help but pause and ponder over the message. But it seems the image of the fading panda seems to convey an unintended message: It's not WWF that's being wished to go extinct, but the panda!
"Every ad is an opportunity."
Under the panda you can reed WWF. Maybe one of the most important logo in the world.
People are not so stupid. I wish.
(Sorry for my english!)
I LOVE THIS AD...for me, its 100% EFFECTIVE and right to the point....great concept & twist....10 points!!
I really like this ad. Although many people won't get it, I'm afraid.

DONE! DONE! DONE!
Really nice thought. And thanks Michelle for clarifying the idea for everyone. The only thing I think I would change would be the image itself. I think the logo is too blurred. So much so that it looks more like a picture of a panda, rather than the WWF logo. This idea doesn't need that much of a misdirect.
We'll reconvene at 10.

why is there a mistake in the copy ( together) ? Isn't it a published ad?
I kinda like this anyways...

Pubblished without mistakes. Fortunatly.
they no rite so gud
Ok thought, but it's just trying to turn a phrase really. And the headline is definitely off anyway.
The message in teh ad is good but it might have more impact if
1. It appeared with a more appropriate graphic instead of the WWF logo
2. The copy was a little more prominent.

The headline is a tad too clever for itself.
It seems to have confused quite a few people (that it shouldn't) already!
We all know what WWF stands for.
The last copy line nails it, nicely.
>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.
Summum bonum.
The copy is great. Art Direction could be better. The idea is not that original and could be use for any ONG. So i'll give it 6/10
ahhhh... simple and clever, loves it!
We fight every day for endeio extinction.
Brilliant. Just brilliant. Just what a non-profit organization want.
it took me 5 times reading to get what its trying to say......still nice ad though
:D smile for papirazzi :D
Logo without the panda replaced with the WWF logo only would have been great
