It's a poster for a newly launched rock band named "OUS - The Oustracized Performers". Please have a look.

It doesn't say Rock and Roll. The old style microphone could be cool if it were a jazz band or old time country singer. The musical notes are lame. VERY lame. So is the glittering sparkles. That says Hanna Montana, not rock and roll. Last but not least the drum set is very cliched and disjointed.

Nice artwork - but as Penny said - inappropriate. It reminds me of a clip art ad - "Here's what you can create with our clip art!" There's a place in the advertising world for a stylized piece like this - but it's not rock-n-roll. Watch a couple hours of Headbanger's Ball reruns, then hit the computer and start from scratch.

I agree. It has a Blingee look to it.

This might be something over which you have no control, but the word is "ostracized." I'm trying to think of some clever play on words that would explain why you are spelling it "oustracized," but I can't think of one. "Austracized" makes a little more sense, especially if the group is German but otherwise, I just don't get it.

That point also disturbing because I had same question about the meaning of "oustracized". I agree this is not appropriate because I'd only 6 hrs to complete it as it was too urgent. But now I'm going to recreate it so make it best what it must. One more thing I noticed that after uploading it that is due to this microphone it looks like a old age singing competition.

I've to rethink and redesign it to revitalize it.
