I don't like advertising - PhotoShop/Paint-job
The message (to housewives) is "Which girl is your little girl?"
Followed by the answer, which is the brand.
There's a lot to see in there that divides the two characters into a back and white opposition. It's skewed two people to present the one who's mother does use (that) detergent as better.
For the sake of balance, I decided to have fun by introducing some colour - white is a bit boring no matter how bright it is.

try adjusting the levels some to make the black pop out and the background white
All the colour is level-adjusted.
The reason I've not turned up the B&W contrast is to reduce the contrast/conflict between the two characters - it's a nasty advertising technique.
Secondly, white needs to be seen as just another shade of grey - nothing is perfect, and life would be boring if it were otherwise.

i dont know if its my monitor but it looks like she had some stout kool-ade to drink with the bright color
Yes some of the levels were shoved too far - saturated, my error.

Oh yes. Absolutely perfect, I might get my mate to do this on a (legal) wall - he likes graffiti.

Hmm, a kindergarten teacher may look at this and refer you to the counselors. You should go occupy Wall Street.
How would might a kindergarten teacher look at it if I'd added a cigarette?

Nowadays, they would ask if you had a spare. They are stressed out by being relegated to underpaid babysitters encumbered by a myriad of administrative rules on what should be taught to your kid and how they go about doing it.
Yea teachers!
I have a friend who is a teacher on half-term, boy does she like to party when she ain't got to get up tomorrow....

The first party I attended featuring alcohol was hosted by a kindergarten teacher.
Boy can she go.
She didn't really seem to mind that I was underage. Strange how morals can go out the window when outside of the public school premises.

Playing devil's advocate out of boredom, morals and positive law don't always coincide.
Yep, antique advertising is great...there are some really good books on this exact subject (but I only know the ones for US advertising!).
