Join the can collection drive and save the environment.
These are from the same campaign we posted two days ago.
The use of images and colors from Pepsi and Coca-Cola to associate these companies with the Can Collection Drive is interesting. These big soft drinks companies probably have no problem with such representation of their image, but did they provide approval?
It opens up a wider debate of whether mainstream brands being used in unapproved advertising should be allowed without prior notice if it’s for a non-profit cause.

It’s Ramadan again, the holy Islamic month of fasting, and it is now associated with ‘Ramadan visuals’ and symbols that appear in advertising in Muslim countries and communities.
Islamic traditional art meets modern graphic design tools, and here are some of the results, from Ramadan greeting cards, Ramadan promotions and other sources.

Well, it is the season for Ramadan-themed advertising, and this is an interesting, if not completely understandable, poster for Burger King.
Obviously, Ramadan starts when Muslims witness the moon crescent, and that’s supposed to be the ‘creative’ connection
But what is this ad saying?
Maybe we also need to figure out if it’s an official Burger King ad or just the independant work of the people whose credits appear on Ads Of The World.

How many brands does your little kid already know and LOVE? I bet they’re numerous. My 3 year old is currently car brand crazed. He’s recognizing every Peugeot on the street these days after we bought a new family car from the French car maker. And of course, how can kids not know the Golden Arches of McDonalds. It’s a branded world out there!
How ‘dangerous’ is this. Will kids grow up as retarded brand junkies who can’t buy or use anything unless it has a well known logo on it? Have a branded and ‘designed’ toys taken away the joys of childhood tinkering and imaginative exploration.
Wether you agree or not with such statement, check out these warning labels on the Make magazine blog.
