    make narrower

    Great, funny, whimsical. Nice idea.

    My suggestion would be to remove some of the keys to make the keyboard narrower. No one is counting, and everyone will still get the visual. See attached. Delete the columns of keys and slide the outer keys in to the middle.

    If you do this, you could make the image of the spaceman slightly bigger in the middle, and it will fit in the T-Shirt better.

    Hi Tomas

    I really like this. It's really cool.

    I think if you get rid of too many keys, the keyboard will look 'wrong'. You could get rid of one on the right bottom row and one small key from each row above. I am on a mac and there are only three keys to the right of the space bar.

    I like the simplicity of white on black but maybe one single coloured item could be added on the space bar to draw extra focus to this area.

    Have you seen Chunk t-shirts? They are some of my favourites

    love it

    haha, I love this !!! The idea and concept are truly original. Im shocked that no one has done this before!?

    I think a little colour may work, not 100% sure if "non-geeks" will understand it , but being a geek and a designer I got it straight away.

    With regards to cutting the keyboard short, leave it as it is, on a t-shirt this will be perfect.

    Maybe to help the "normal" people on the streets you could actually put the words "spece bar" above the design??

    I love it..

    The Idea is without a doubt Excellent but think about it, on a t-shirt it wont look that attractive. it might not grab the attention of the viewer.

    It can be made better if u make the man colored maybe in a bright color so it wont look like a simple keyboard for a viewer looking at it from a distance. Adding a bright color on a white keyboard would make it standout and would add some attraction and the viewer would pay attention to the t-shirt.....

    I really love the idea...Gr8 job.

    Nice job

    I has been a while since I really strolled through a T-Shirt shop and checked out graphics on T's. But I like the concept. Different, appealing, yet makes you think about what it is. That could be a good thing or a bad thing. Talking from a nerdy standpoint, I think people who are computer people will get the concept and really like it. If they are promoting to the masses for mass appeal, it may not because of the niche market of people who are, quote, "computer nerds".

    I really enjoy the interesting thought behind it. I like the attention to the perspective from the computer key shadows as well.

    NIce work.

    Very nice!

    A great design! Simple yet makes you think about it which I love! Lighting and shadows work well from what I can see. I would say try adding in a faint background of stars to further the meaning of "Space"bar but it would probably ruin the design so it's up to you!

    Overall great design!
