I lke it! They made Sasha look like like freaky elf-girl.
That reminds me of a thread a while back that was talking about a "skating show theme" and someone brought up Lord of the Rings

Dee, ITA... I think Sasha looks cool in this picture... its very Laura Croft: Tomb Raider-ish but it adds an edge to an otherwise "pretty girls on ice" concept that has dominated the Got Milk ads featuring skaters. I'd say overall its a great promotion of both Sasha and the sport...
While she does look healthier in this pic, her hair looks messy and that dress is so short, she looks like she either should be skating or walking the street.

I Like the Laura C comparison:agree: , but she is not as intimidating to goons with guns.
just haven fun.Anyway - I agree with Kristy not being as touched up (just her skin tone "evening" and some softening on the edges of her eyes) and MK.... well, about the same with the same skin evening and eyes (likely some whitening to eyes too) with a lot of attention do eliminating her freckles / pimples / mini moles - people have different names for these so I never know what to call them. That bothers me because I like them. I really hope they wouldn't take Fumie's away from the side of her nose and the middle of he sternum, they are very nice looking on both ladies IMO.
The skin makes since, due to what they have done in the past with "airbrushing" (literal once) skin and now people have false expectations. I don't agree with doing it, but understand why.

Yeah, you're right. A more natural picture of Sasha would be so much more attractive. She pulls off the natural look very well, IMO.

I always did think she looked Elfy, lol. She has those ears like Audrey Hepburn's.
Exactly right. as a computer image. Could it be that the pictures are intended to look like a computer image? To appeal to the gamers? Maybe a new game is in the works?

I agree it's not only heavily, but poorly, edited. The question is- why? Sasha is too thin already.

IMO, I wouldn't say "too" thin - in reality but the pic I think are. Her legs in particular are very nice as is. I feel the same thought that there was no "need" to change her shape at all. The ice behind the right leg just kills me how pour that is edited. But as been pointed out, LOVE the outfit!
Ok, to the pic is "Nightmare before Christmas" freaky...but am I the only one 
over the "Edge by Sasha" comment? She's standing on the freaking FLAT of her blade people!! (Not like Sasha's edges have ever been the part of her skating more highly praised). I think it's flipping hysterical!!

I'm surprised that Sasha's people would feature this negative article on Sasha's web site. If you read it carefully, it basically says that the ad campaign is a fraud.
"A number of doctors and nutrition experts challenge the ads' statements about milk's ability to help teenagers lose weight and build muscle.
"Barry M. Popkin, a professor of nutrition at the University of North Carolina, said the public would ignore the exact language of the ads, which says studies "suggest teens who choose" milk tend to be leaner.
"'They will quickly leap to the assumption that drinking more milk will get them to lose weight,' he said.
"Dr. David S. Ludwig, director of the obesity program at Children's Hospital Boston and an author of a report released in March on soda consumption among teenagers, said: 'The purpose of the campaign is clearly to sell product and not to inform the public. If the purpose were to inform the public, then positive, neutral and negative studies should be presented in a balanced way.'"
