Hi Bill,

Well from a consumer's point of view, I'd like for advertiser's to
coordinate the captions with the creation of their advertisements,
rather than just adding the captions after the ad has been made in
the majority of the cases.

All to often the captions clash with the background of the ad.  For
example when the advertisement uses a mixture of dark colors in the
background and then a sudden change to a bright white background the
standard black strip with white captions get lost while the eyes are
trying to adjust to the sudden change.

I might be a bit biased, since I work with computer generated graphics
for presentations and also do some Desk-Top Publishing in my office.

                                                Wayne
