Oh wow! You do this sort of thing for a living, don't you? I'm gonna be kinda picky here and suggest you smudge the center white dot in the background and also smudge the gradient next to the top of the 4th brace on the right. This is a wonderful and clever use of the source. Well done!

Nice idea!
Anyway there is a green big dot in the middle that i would not put it there.

thanks, did some enhancing of the color,

Hmm, honestly, I liked the unenhanced one better. I'd like it even more without the dot. But its your entry and if you like it, that's all that's really important.

Back to the original with removed white DOT that was BEHIND the fan, (you have no idea how many little white specs I cloned out before realizing what you were talking about, I put a lot of them back because it looked weird, oh lord

Thank you oh great Tater Tot , removed the enhancing and lighted the gradiant, darn my eyes

Oh too funny. That dot was the only one I saw. lol I like this much, much better now. Gonna tuck it into my favs.

Lol! This is fun. Very clever (I know you) author.
Seems real to me. Good luck.

like the fan, dont liek the text on top. think it should have been a bit more stylish imo. i dont like the arrow on top either. the fan however is "cool".

sorry Eladine, I used to do advertisements for companies and I always had to follow their suggestions.., I used that here.. a Fan representing a BAC company (thus the arrow symbol) I'm sure you could have done better, but it was all that came to me during my creation.. thanks!

just an ad in a magazine, something I used to do all the time

Oh no i dont think I could have done it so to speak better, I would have done it differently tho . The essential part of the image imo is the fan and I truely do like it. hence my wordplay saying its cool . on my screen if i scroll down so the text is not vissible on top, I like the image a lot better. I dont know what is BAC and the relation with the arrow, google couldnt help me much either there..

BAC as in Bantor Air Conditioning (the arrow is what you see on a keyboard for backspace) has to do with marketing/letterhead/company logo

well I still dont see what the backspace key on the keyboard has anything to do with airconditioning I've never heard of the company BAC either, but i guess i dont know enough about marketing, letterhead and logo design for that... Anyhow good luck with the entry , again like i said i love how you created the fan very clever not only the way you created it but also in relation with the airconditioning part.

Pardon me author, I write poems & make cheesy rhymes, and this just struck me after reading the entire thing:

"...the best in cool"
".. if you're looking elsewhere, guess who's the fool?"

@Eladine, I think it's the company name BAC(kspace) hence the arrow. Only wished somebody would've told them it's so NOT cool. -_-"

oh lord, pray for my soul LOLOLOLOLOL or what's left of it

WOW! (Very pleasantly surprised.) Great job with the fan design, love the texture on it. The logo has that classic look of advertising from 'back in the day' - I was there, too, author. Wax pasteups, and Times Roman was the font of choice. I think the arrow works with the font and remainder of the image - simple and classic.

@nacho124, sorry for not giving you 5 points! I was thinking that I gave you 5 but I realised that i gave you only 1 when I posted it! Really sorry!

Euxaristw!

I think this might be more cohesive if you didn't use different effects for each frame. I like the 'halftone' effect in the lower left corner the most. Perhaps you could use that one and vary the color of each a bit. Nice job, author!

@pixelkid: Thanks for your suggestions pixelkid, but I choose different effec for each cell, in order to show the diversity of our planet. I'll try to fix them if I have free time! Thanks again!

Perfect work ! You are very good. I like comics in general.

It might elicit a more "watery" feel if the gradient was blue. Just my opinion.

Way too much text... it's not really advertising a new drink.... IMO

When I construct ads for convention magazines, I usually have to cram in 50-100 words of text 4-8 pictures (all with captions) sometimes coupons as well, not to mention maps to the booth..

It's advertising a company that cleans water.. thus a beverage.. IMHO

Thanks for your comments

Goal:
Kabooza is hot! Kabooza is cool! Kabooza is just the most exciting beverage you ever tried.

Is the design meeting the contest goal? not sure.

If you've ever been to a Product Convention, this would be the coolest Product there.. industrial product Conventions are where all the nerds in High School grow up to spend the bazillion dollars they earned for studying so hard... (though some of the products are quite amazing.. industrial dryers are the most fun.. they can process thousand pound loads and you could fit an entire class of fifth graders into one

The idea for a company making a beverage base popped into my head, (It's very Hallmarky, but I wanted to press it out of the catalog look)

I did try it in the blue spectrum (as suggested by Blind Scientist) but I just kept going back to the red so I decided to keep it... (it's not like I'm going to win or anything, but I sure enjoyed making the piece)

Thanks again Gopan!

Water is still the best refreshing and essencial drink for life (does anybody live without water?)
