Starburst.

Written by Erin on May 13, 2010 – 9:19 am

Really CVS a starburst in a banner ad? Really? Are you trying to make me blind? Please tell me you didn’t pay someone to design this. And I (fingers and toes crossed) hope for your sake this starburst was not something you demanded that your agency/designer/poor soul include in the ad.

The right hand sky scraper is the offending banner and no I didn’t cut off the bottom “Now through May” thats how the ad appeared on mail.yahoo.com. The left hand large box is expandable that popped out from “Rollover to Save”.

    The starburst is even squished a bit, didn’t think you can make and ugly design element even uglier.
