So one of my friends is organising a party with the theme 80s and has asked me to come up with a flyer/poster. This is a rough sketch now and I'd REALLY need suggestions! Thanks!

Im guessing you need idead for filling up the flyer? 80's style ghetto blasters would look nice if you could get one positioned with the next. And try to use as many contrasting colours as you can, that was a big thing in the 80's.

The text you have looks good but add a black drop around it like graffiti usualy does, then the fill colour round that, looks kinda retro. That's about all the input i have, apart form go find some old people who remember the 80's.

Have the color rings around the words go out farther with varying colors. Would look awesome.

But before you do throw in a peace sign in there somewhere like in the bottom right next to austins genitals.

I think that's more 60 & 70's than 80's no?

Where's the disco ball? >:C Lava lamp? I'm just thinking of retro items.

I think it looks pretty funky. Perfect colour scheme.
