insufficient butterflies

animated butterflies that rise whithin an ATM screen instead of the dissapointing and dull "insufficient founds" message

the summary pretty much says it all.. customized butterflies for each bank, and maybe a cloud behind could be customized for every card type;

the animation could also come to life subsequent to panic pin* enter.

       Welcome to the Halfbakery!   

       By the way: sp: "insufficient funds" - the title had me confused for a bit! ;-)

       Perhaps also a gathering of flowers while we are hippy-iising our ATM's.   

       Props on the first idea [sweet]. Confusing yet alluring title.

       Come on. I'm stuck behind someone withdrawing $8 million to show butterflies to the kids? Bad enough they don't know their balance to the last $20 or can't read the instructions.

       Arn't moths traditionally used for this purpose?

       well, yes, the moths are the traditional image, but i thought butterflies are needed, since banking advertising involves positive images even when refering to a dramaticaly low cash-flow level.
