Although I can't read the text, I really like the ad. The copy script font you have chosen is very artistic. The message is very simple and direct. -Cat

Cheers, Vikas.

Mahmoud,

I think that the image is pretty nicely done, although I would like to see the fingers not touching the edge, but that is minor I think.

This is very interesting, not being able to read the text (I did read your translation), I say interesting, as it is hard to understand how you dealt with the text. Anyway, the text, although very beautiful, seems a bit heavy in relation to the image, but I do like the contrast of it against the Burka. I am also wondering if the border and the text color was a little less black, and picked up one of the shades int he Burka, if it might tone done the text a bit.

Like I said, it does add a new element, not being able to read the text myself.

I have a question, wouldn't taliban be captialized? Anway thanks for sharing.

Chris
