Spoof adverts for SL

Well, I came across a picture and I thought what a spiffing wheeze it would be to produce a spoof ad for SL. My model was the old ad that used to appear on the front of the website - but I don't insist that everyone should use that as their model. Seems to me that any marketing material for SL is fair game :-)

It's a poor thing but mine own...one day I will work out how to insert the picture between two bits of text and not at the end :-).

It probably breaks branding guidelines, but I always imagined a Second Life print ad looking something like this:

Wow, that's fabulous, Snark... that definitely would've gotten my attention and made me check out the website if I'd seen it in a magazine back before I knew about SL. :)

Snark, that's a jazzy and very well oriented ad. Nicely done.

By the way, I love the idea of some of the sexy females in SL being secretly played by little old ladies.... and isn't 'spiffing wheeze' a great term? :)
