gosh...this is just like the idea i saw in d forum topics!!
~ old habits die hard, older ones never do ~
Remember this campaign where they put a pair of "panda eyes" on other endangered animals? The line said something like "Not Only Panda Need Protection" or something like that. I feel this logo campaign is the same idea with different execution.
Why are there so many WWF Ads? Are they all fake? I'm a little bit tired of them.
Are you tired of PSP too?
Yes. But PSP always has very good art direction and photography.
I think I get it, but it's not that clear. I take it they've replaced the panda in the official WWF logo with different animals to emphasise that more animals need protection?

Doin' it for the points
You know these ads serves two clients at the same time, the WWF and the optometrist. Why do they make you read such small type

This is really bad if they stole it from the "exhibition" section. Ivan, anyway of checking when this came out?
I could only find two similar ads:

Is this what you're referring to?
yes especially the last one. The idea is identical, and it was posted 5 days ago. When did this ad come out?
Was sent yesterday. Not sure when it was done.
Hey this guys stolen a student work! if they did they are natural born Losers!
I dont want to say someone is stealing ideas here, but last week I posted a very similar idea... and I also asked for help, to improve the ad. Some people posted I need to make a shorter frase, and a smaller logo.
Do I have to do anything?

Unless there are pub dates to this creative somewhere, (which would be virtually unattainable), I don't think you can do anything about it man. I saw this in your forum post, and like everyone else I agreed it was a great idea but needed some more tweaking. This was one of the rare student ads that I wish I'd done.
This is really pathetic and low. To steal from a student book is perhaps the worst thing you can do. My advice, would be to contact the CDs from said office, if possible, and point it out to them. Long shot, but it might work. Unless they've turned a blind eye as well.
Sorry about that man. Sh*tty deal.
You may even get a fat job...
when i was opening adsoftheworld the first time today, i was thinking that you already finished these ads, then seeing that it is from China
it's really bad luck and by any chance i would take your line instead of theirs "More animals need to be protected".
either this is really a huge coincidence (time, idea and look) or just a further improvement into chinas copy image. I think the latter is right.
It's always the same story! Chieneses are used to copy everything, ads too!
What does that even mean?
Doin' it for the points
Lousy writer talk everything thru their a$$, you too!

how was this ad produced? isn't that graphic directly in the gutter?
I agree that this definitely seems to be stolen from the forum, but I find it hard to believe that someone would steal the idea and then have the guts to post it a week later - that takes balls! Part of me sincerely hopes that it's just a huuuuuuuuuge coincidence.
Just because it uses the same technique (replacing the panda with another animal), does not mean it is the same idea. The idea in this ad is: Pandas are not the only species that need protection. The idea behind Jose's ad is actually quite the opposite of this one. It says: Help the pandas now, or they will be gone (thus necessitating a revision of the logo.) Different ideas; similar executions. One ad is asking you to focus your attention on the panda; the other is asking you to not focus on the panda but to devote some attention to other animals. And I seriously doubt the team in China copied Jose's work. Similar ideas -- not just in advertising, but in movies, songs, books and photos -- happen all the time. That is why those of us who have been in advertising for a while know that if you have a terrific idea, you need to execute it right away, because you can be assured that someone else in the world will have the same idea.
We'll reconvene at 10.

I've decided I hate signatures.
good point. I wanted to argue, but can't. It seems like such a technicality, but alas, is enough to prove that they are in fact two different messages.
Maybe. In the end no one of us will know.
Finally, if your idea appears elsewhere, it wasn't extraordinary enough probably.
You are right, similiarities happen and they happen fast, so keeping a speedy pace for execution is important as well as the proper timing for posting ideas on the WWW.
Cleverness at the cost of being persuasive.
