Perhaps one promising glory and medals for fighting the bugs?
(I guess that incident with relieving myself in the Admirals private elevator on board Behemoth Ymir, has put my hopes of any medals many a galactic jump into the future
)

That happened to you too? I knew they put something in the rum!

haha!
I once got thrown into the Brig by the PettyOfficer of the GRID.
He didn't like the way my bridge smelled and had me fined for violating some enviro-regulation section something. At that point I had enough and left the man ranting in my airlock as I went off to talk to somebody without feathers....
here are my contributions for the War Effort:
Buy Liberty Bonds!
(many thanks to all that I stole material from)

I'd say that it happens to the best of us, but I suppose that others will take the three of us as an example of the exact opposite
@AH:
Ah,
that Planet Express
Here's one more recruitment ad based on an image from the Wiki.
Keep'em coming

They really deserve to be separate ads, I think.
Some more Adds

First some of the planet decriptions used for my inspiration:
Name Inhabitants Galaxy Description
Inzaan 8 The planet Inzaan is cursed by vicious killer beasts.
Bearrabe Frogs 6 The world Bearrabe is reasonably noted for its inhabitants' exceptional loathing of food blenders.
Mazaza Small Red Frogs 6 This planet is reasonably noted for its inhabitants' exceptional love for food blenders.
Bebidiso 6 This world is very notable for its inhabitants' weird silliness and its inhabitants' ingrained silliness.
Isveve 1 The planet Isveve is reasonably noted for its inhabitants' eccentric shyness and its inhabitants' eccentric shyness.

I need a nice shot of any navy ship flying headon towards the viewer, preferably type recognisable.
I need it to make a cOopy of another vintage warposter.
And hopefully I'll be able to upload two more homages to WW2 recruiting propaganda posters.
@nil: They are the wrong size for single posters. Expanding them would destoy their composition as well as the reference to real wartime-posters.
But suggestions are welcome.
I'll upload a new one of a Ooliteshow add later.
edit: now.
edit2:
Ok nevermind the frontal pic, I winged it from ancient blueprints.
Two more recruiting posters. The Dawn one (the original) I had lying around for ages, as it imediately caught my Elite-eye.
(If anyone is interested in the originals, I could put up reduxed axamples of them. I'm not going to fill my webspace with stuff if noone is interested. Anyhow, all are available online if you know how to look.)
edit3: I should have replaced the coffeemug with a trumble.

I also got a collection of 'MantheGuns' 'Buy Bonds' etc adds, but they are less easy to coOnvert.
Same for the more blatant propaganda posters and those from WWI, they may look cool, but a canadian soldier strangling a black eagle makes little sense in our Ooniverse.
(How is that for a bump-post?)

There's been some top quality ideas and ad's for the new campaign.
I've got one more to add.

Maybe some references to Alien Nation, Red Dwarf or V?
Don't get lost.
Use GC-transponders.
They only wanted our Toasters...
Androids soapopera
That sort of thing.
How about that banner in the topleft corner of this page?

18 new ads since Thursday?
:D:D
Looks good.
The Ad-X spokeslobstoid would have been clapping his claws had he still been with us. But I'm sad to inform you that he was involved as a passenger in a tragic incident involving skimming a treacherous sun in Galaxy 1. He came back all red and done, Giles rest his soul. More bisque anyone?
