I hated it when the tape came out / snapped like that!! nice design, would love it on other colors as well.
|
 |
maybe if it said
RIP THE CASSETTE 1963-2007 then it would be okay, but i dont like the fact that it says old spool, i dont really get it. |

Ethan3,
It's a play on words, instead of 'old skool.' The roll of tape inside the cassette is called a spool. |
 |
I really like the idea but i had a hard time reading it.
|
 |
love the idea!
but yeah, at first i saw no spoon |

BALD CHILD: But I know the truth.
KEANU: What's that? BALD CHILD: There is no spoon. (It's hard to do movie quotes without being able to do the voices) Hmmm... I can imagine it being hard to read unless the tape was shaped into some kind of font, but I wanted it to look like it had fallen into that shape. Maybe if it said 'old spool' on the label of the cassette? |

FRICKINAWESOME on Jul 29 '08 VERY hard to read what it's supposed to say.
|

I like the idea of it being written on the tape instead of being spelled out with the tape. Nice though :)
|
 |
You've got a great idea but you need to make the letters stand out more.
|
|
I tried it with a sample audience and they read it fine...
Maybe if the tape spelled RIP, that would probably be bold enough to read. |
 |
Why on white? You could add more to the impact of the shirt if it was on a color. Also, ditto what FRICKINAWESOME said.

Thanks for all your comments. I've already submitted a new design with changes based on what you've said here.

About my design
1963 - 2007
Compact cassettes could be frustrating at times; hissing, stretching or getting chewed up in tape decks. But while MP3s and downloads are the standard now, tapes played an important role in musical culture for more than 40 years.
