Pretty cool idea but it needs a different layout/approach. Seems a little... messy right now what with the 11 guy just being placed any old where.

I liked this. And I think the font goes with the shirt. It's funny

I like the image HEAPS, but yes -- a different font; as it is now the title overpowers the silhouettes, which I feel are more important, visually. Or, you could do away with the text altogether, and leave the meter as is, but add-in a gradually increasing sloped-thing, or sine-wave, or something to that effect.

I also love the placement of (11) as it communicates the idea that it's just so -powerful- that it's beyond the meter, and beyong standing in line with the rest. Another idea would be to put it on the back, just below the collar; as a visual surprise, or something...? *shrug*

BTW, please don't mistake any of my comments as demands! Merely helpful suggestions, if you will, from a potential customer! ^_^

Maybe just do away with the writing all together. The shirt speaks for itself if you give it some thought. Nice first submission!

i personally would love it if the 11 was a guy blowing a trumpet up into the air, but that's just me

anyway, i absolutely LOVE this. it could do without. 4$ :)

i was really worried until trybal said that. I didnt think anyone got it. The font works because it is spinal tap font. and thats where the 11 comes from. You all are a bunch of sillies for not noticing.......sillies.

11 is too randomly placed. great idea though.

I like the idea and most of the images, but not the layout. The idea is pretty funny though.

Thanks for everyone that's left feedback. There's definitely an homage to spinal tap here (and rocking in general).

To those who said that the font is overpowering...funny, I didn't notice it when I was putting it together, but now that you meantion it...yeah. I'm a little unfamiliar with the process here. How do you know if its ok to resubmit something like that?

Also, as far as the weird placement for the "11" I had really wanted it to go on the back, but that didn't fit in a 13 x 13 area. Sigh...

Anyway, thanks again.

The wider the feet, the higher the power. Ballerinas are still cool.

I wish it looked like an actutal round-style gauge... with the line being an arc, and the images at the appropriate angles over their numbers on the arc.
