    I'm looking for a picture of the latest Nivea ad. It shows a young woman sitting down with her leg raised.

    I'm planning on doing an article on it, but I need a source picture. If anyone has a high-quality scan or hard copy please contact me.

    Just out of curiosity, is this going to be a positive or negative article on the ad?

    oh is this the one that dublin buss have?? a very cheeky lookin hottie with long LOOONNG legs, very shagable if i do say so myself!!!

    yeah, if anyone can get me a shot of it, if much appreciate it too, especially if they know who the model is and where i can get more "revealing" shots of her... for "artistic" reasons of course......

    It's going to be a negative article, yes... but not in the way you may think.

    I've seen another picture of this woman, and she's gorgeous. But for this print ad, Nivea have hacked her to shreds; "retouching" her into something else.

    The article will detail the alterations they have done to her picture, and discuss them.

    Hey ^whitey^, what did you mean anyway? :)

    Would it be a complaint to the ASAI by any chance?

    Alright. Tell them, quite plainly (and honestly) that it is for an article about the steps taken by Nivea to turn a beautiful woman into something not human, and to be perfectly honest less attractive.

    That's the truth.

    If you're serious: A large hard copy would be ideal, but if not, a high resolution scan will do. And if you are serious, thanks.
