We’ve already featured this ill conceived ad concept before in 2007. Every graphic designer or advertiser at some stage in their career will have the bright idea of making the product into someone’s head. Now an artliner has articulated the problem. From Brer Bento. I’m also adding a pic of my own to sweeten the post thinking that someone may find in this Bayswater sign some rich gravatar material.

Cappuccino head is a crap idea.
Though I have to admit before Iv’e had my morning caffeine hit, that graff neatly sums up what I’m thinking.
I, for one, welcome our new cup-headed overlords.
I’d like to remind them that as a trusted union identity, I can be helpful in rounding up others to toil in their underground froth-making caves.
I’m sure that Bayswater sign is an optical illusion along the lines of this classic:

The best new building in the city being promoted with the some of the worst advertising copy ever produced. My guess is that they spent all the money laser-cutting the steel that sits over the windows, because the photoshopping is so bad on this that it doesn’t even achieve the “bad on purpose” look.
The worst part, though, is that DPI are set to be the primary tenants. 20 points for anyone who can name a single meritorious piece of DPI work in the last ever.
Never mind the concept, this has to be the sloppiest Photoshop work I’ve seen in many a long day.
This is positively classy in comparison:

I’m sure the white bits around Cappuccino Man’s legs are his caffeine aura.
As inept as it is, the “one40″ signage is marginally better than typical city apartment advertising suggesting Perth as part of the mystical nexus of “London, Paris, New York”, etc. Not so sure though about “one40″ being the “best new building” in Perth.
OK NF#1 I give up. Who is the gravatar?
Is one 40 the building that has acres of graffitti throughout the underground carpark?
Unlikely this building has an underground carpark, given that it sits on top of the William St train station. You must be thinking of a different building. By the way, how’s the bible study going orbea?
christianity
opiate for dunderheads
fuck bible study
i think that is the condor building, with the attractive front door.
ok thanks, will have a gander
You can start here.
Or here.
Jeez was it really a year ago since that link post? I have now bookmarked 6000times. Thankyou very much.
Quite. What happened to the cute blonde?
You mean this?

Always so concerned about gravatars Shaz: why is that? First you more or less command me to get one, then interrogate me when for some reason my posts appear without it, and now this. But in answer to your question, it’s a Filipino hooker, as inspired my interpretation of the Boner Lisa. I really should change it.
Yeah. Vegan’s currently got that covered.
scrag fight, behind the toilets. now nf#1.
I thought it might have been Corryn Rayney or Tina Turner au naturel.
Not always NF, no commands, no interrogation.
No greed, no ridicule, no hurt.
Just people saying “cunt”.
Cunt always in context. Apparently night time is the right time.
– and morning tea.
morning c time.
yep vegan, and afternoon c.
As much as I’d like to trawl through TWOP in order to locate the evidence backing up my charges of gravaphilia Shaz, I actually have gainful employment today.
I did ask about the disappearance of your grav recently, as I wasn’t sure you could see it had disappeared. And was curious about your current identity, but I think it’s usually WAtching who commands peeps to get their grav on.
Though I do admit to paying attention to peoples gravatar choices. So shazza the gravaphiliac it is.
Esme Watson like,
Shaz submits gravatars to
Investigation
I hope someone will use today’s guy.
Happy?
Esme Watson? Cunt.
That’s exactly what you told Bob and Cookie about Esme, you provincial gossip-mongerer.
Michaelara have split and all we can do is gripe about gravatars.
This country!
Well, at Borders on the weekend I spotted a display at the front of the store containing the latest issues of the main women’s magazines, Brendan Fevola’s children’s book, a magazine on Iphones, and several other relevant items. Pity I didn’t get a photo.
Besides, she started it.
Dear god. What’s with all the aggro today?
Plus Esme Watson is a cuntulous arsetit.
Speaking of gravatars…
Who are you calling a gravatar?
Not aggro, just some good-natured sparring surely. As Cohen said above.
On the other hand, maybe the image of Cappuccino-Head triggered my desire to insult and mock today.
I saw the Alice movie on Saturday and I’m sure I heard Helena Bonham Carter say
‘cuntulous arsetit.’
