Added another two, the first one's for a teeth whitener (hard to tell since teeth so small in pic. Second is for a Hover Car.

BTW my first pic was an ad for Gargle Blasters

<edit> made the mouth a little bigger on the tooth whitener ad

Probably in way too late, but you could darken the face, render a lens flare on the whitened teeth and grunge up the before teeth a little bit more.

Very quick and dirty:

Not too late at all.
The progrssion of this oxp is going at a snails pace (or not at all really)
If no one else decides to continue this oxp in the next month or so I think I'll release a set G/H version,
even if no one does a new animated billboard, we can always use one of tte other ones again,
set D and F use the same one already, so there's a precedent for it

Give me a chance - some of have RL going (A two year old with Chicken Pox, snowed in for a week, etc.)

Set G is sort of ready to go, but I'd like a roof billboard in keeping with the rest of the sets, the last 15 ads have effectively been adding to set H.

Never understood the reasoning behind the current animated rooftop billboards, they don't really fit the theme for a Convenience Store, they're better suited for a Bar or Motel.

Usually for convenience stores, the only type of animated neon sign you would see would be something like "OPEN 24 HOURS" in big writing, with one of their products (a hot dog, pizza, soda, etc) in big flashy neon colours. Not cartoon creatures getting drunk...

Something like the billboards in the opening of Futurama would be good.

We don't use words for the signs because the constores rotate and therefore for 50% of the time the wording is reversed and actually is fairly unreadable for a large portion of the time it is the right way round. The first roof top sign was Griff's dancing robot and that set the trend - I have no plans to break that trend now (trust me - I've had Ark kick three of my offerings for roof billboards into touch)

The Con Stores are more than just trading posts ... there are bars aplenty inside. When you've just emerged from a 16-hour wormhole flight, some of us like to stop for a quick snort before pressing on to the main station! And there are other services on offer, too – e.g.:

Nice,

Would be great if the constores are expanded. Now I find them somewhat limited. Would be great if you can take special missions, visit a bar or gamble a bit.

I totally agree with that

EDIT: DH - This Ad onwards should feature in Set I of YAH!
