Spotted this Flash ad from Dell and Intel today. It’s an animation of blood dripping into a pool. The punchline? Cutting edge technology.
Very witty; but don’t the ad folk mind about what this image evokes – pain, broken skin, mess, hospitals?
I’ll stick to writing.

… Yeh, not the way I’d have gone with it..
I’d rather not associate blood or cystitis with my gadgets. Unless it’s a medical gadget that gets rid of the aforementioned!
I suppose we should be thankful it’s an original ad idea at least..?
