Below are some anti-smoking ads, I thought they were excellent and wanted to share them with you all. It amazes me what people can up with and how they can try and persuade some smokers to quit.
I hope you enjoyed the pictures and had some good laughs and maybe even surprised by what people can come up with. My favorite pictures are no 5 and the last one.
I know this is a stupid question, but which one was your favorite?

I loved 2nd and 5th one…All other are also very good..Surely they convey the message….
.-= Compute Live´s last blog ..20 Creative and Inspirational 404 Error Page Design =-.
@Compute Live – yes, they convey the message and hope people will look.
Lovely collection George. This might make me to cut down the smoke.

@Harsh – let me know if it helped
Sure Let me grab my last smoke

@Harsh – you make me laugh. You said I must blog while I wait for you and I’m replying to your comment, now thats funny
The first one have a really good design, but the gun is probably my favourite. Every pack of cigarettes have big labels with “smoking kills” on them, but still people don’t care because it seems unreal. I think they should have to update their warning with something people can relate to a bit more.
.-= Stefan´s last blog ..How to Install Wordpress on Hostgator =-.
@Stefan – if people are going to die from something, let them at least know what it was, lol.
I like the first one and the last one, but they do convey the message. Greg Ellison
.-= Greg Ellison´s last blog ..Do you get upset at your Unsubscribers? =-.
@Greg – that was my main point. Let others know what it looks like even though they already have some idea.
I had seen some of these on other Blogs! Anyways, its good that you are taking steps to increase anti-smoking awareness.
.-= Tech-Freak Stuff´s last blog ..Symptoms of Swine Flu in Geeks [Funny] =-.
Holy crap thats one hell of a way to get the message out, I have never seen any of them before and they all leave a lasting impression.
All though I hate the ones with the kids in it.
.-= Extreme John´s last blog ..Hell Week a Week of Rants =-.
@Extreme John – glad you liked them, I hope it made a lasting impression on you.
I liked the first two and “ash & burn” pic… but I must say last three images are kind of creepy… but they will surely convey the message to smokers and also prevent people from trying cigarettes.
.-= Nehh´s last blog ..Amber Rose topless =-.
@Nehh – people will still carry on, no matter what they see or read.
Nice pics , specially child picture was really touching. Wish these picture will reduce number of smokers. G8 work .
.-= Ruchi´s last blog ..Measure your Blog Success =-.
@Ruchi – stop them, you got to be looney or crazy. No offense, but smokers won’t stop.
these are great ways to get those people out of smoking. this will surely demotivate them.
.-= gautam hans´s last blog ..33 super engagers to follow =-.
@gautam – non-smokers think so, but not actually.
I agree with you and think this is really weird. I know you can get addicted by smoking because of the chemical substances but you don’t get addicted by one cigarette. Before smoking for your first time you most certainly know it will kill you, so why begin smoking in the first place? I know the classic response is “peer pressure” but I’ve never once been forced into doing something by my friends with “peer pressure”. Sure when I was younger they asked if I was sure I didn’t want a cigarette but after saying no a few times they simply stopped asking.
.-= Stefan´s last blog ..How to Choose a Theme For Your Wordpress Site =-.
@Stefan – you seem to have had great friends when you were younger. Peer pressure is the main issue when you are young, thanks for your feedback.
That’s really an awesome collection, hope some smokers would learn from them. But many would deny saying “Photoshoped”
.-= Mayur´s last blog ..Comment on How to activate Kaspersky 2010 license using a key file ? by purplechap =-.
@Mayur – I’m sure they were edited a lot to get the affect they needed.
Glad that I’m not a smoker. I like the 1st one, it simply tells out a smoker’s future.
.-= Jacob Yap´s last blog ..Envato Birthday Bundle – $300 Of Files For Just $20 =-.
Great collection. Hope some of your readers who are smokers might check this and become serious of stop smoking
I liked 7th one
.-= Nihar´s last blog ..How to Move Feeds from FeedDemon / Newsgator to Google Reader =-.
@Nihar – stop, why? They will only stop if they get cancer, lol
Love the collection of images… my favorite is probably the gun, although they are all really good.
.-= Justin Roberts´s last blog ..Create a Work Space to Increase your Productivity =-.
@Justin – glad you liked the collection. The one with the gun is not bad at all.
Lol. These ads are really fueled by a very good dose of imagination.
Anyway I finally decided to stop smoking. Been about two weeks now. I hope I’ll keep to the decision.
.-= Kurt Avish´s last blog ..Google Hot Trends for other Countries =-.
@Kurt – good luck to you and congrats for making that decision.
