Oh guy....I don't know what to say.

I mean, you're flaunting a sword.... and your love comes with a life time guarantee, along with cuddles?

Wow man

OTOH I don't know what sort of woman you're trying to attract. And maybe I'm just old and out of the loop and girls like that now...I don't know. Just giving my own input.

But as to the idea, it is FUNNY...if the guy pictured were able to crack a smile I'd probably answer the ad.
+1.

My thoughts exactly. It's clever, but could be better executed. The animated woman is creepy looking. Is there a less creepy option?

I end up looking like shriek dipped in chocolate.
Oh my gods. *ded*

Funny you mention that, all my animations come from real photos, and sadly the best photo's to use are mugshots(because they are looking straight at the camera.), the basis for that model was a woman arrested for prostitution in Ohio.

Also mugshots are public domain so no legal issues.

I don't think it's necessary. Is it that hard out there? Not being snarky or sarcastic...it's a genuine question.
yes it is that hard out here. there is too much competition out there, just wanted to use a creative way to stand out.

The writing of the video was clever, but the pics don't match.
Ditch the hoodie and sunglasses. If you can dress up to accompany someone to the mall, then do that now. Can you give a big cheesy smile and show your teeth? Can you have someone take your picture, preferably outside.

The times you mention "call now" sounds kinda desperate, and you don't give a phone number so it's a pointless comment. Perhaps mention look forward to your email, or something like that.

I also vote the animated character is creepy as hell. Ditch her all together and just have a voice over.

That is the hard part, I find many TYPES of women attractive though I do gravitate toward alternative women, Goth, Rockabilly, Grunge etc etc...
And I have a thing for tattoos and such.

But personality wise I want someone who views relationships in a traditional way. as in monogamy, being AND acting faithful. meaning I'm not into poly or women who are flirty with other guys.
