We've been receiving a lot of requests from Jason Castro's fans to make a new design for the talented and lovable guitar and ukulele-strumming dreadhead. We were kinda out of ideas so we turned to the nice peeps behind top Jason community/news source Castrocopia for advice, and one of the suggestions thrown our way was a design that had something to do with Dork Dancing. Great idea!

Without further ado, Poptastic is proud to present "Jason is my Dork Dance King".

Relaxy Taxi
Relaxy Taxi: Nirvana-in-a-Cab. Peace of mind anytime, anywhere! Wouldn't it be nice to escape to shangri-la during your daily commute? The artwork is treated with a worn-out effect to give it an authentic retro look. (Inspired by the Friends episode where Phoebe had an idea to offer massages in a taxi van).

T-shirt Legends, a blog about the best t-shirts designs from Cafepress and other online shops, generously offered a feature on Poptastic. Thank you, Dana! We really appreciate it.

Here is a reprint of the article:

Poptastic is Fantastic
Poptastic is a one-stop shop for groovy graphic tees & gifts for pop culture fans. They carry a variety of products printed with TV and movie-inspired logos and quotes, retro and sci-fi art, funny slogans and pop culture parodies.

Poptastic is run by Cynthia and her husband. Her husband is an artist/graphic novelist and Cynthia is a freelance graphic designer and part-time creative director for a local publication. They opened Poptastic in January 2007.

Cynthia told T-shirt Legends "Poptastic was borne out of our passion for creating graphics that we would like to see people wearing on t-shirts and other apparel. It started out as a hobby but when sales started picking up, we decided that designing for t-shirts using a fulfillment service like Cafepress can actually be a good source of income for us too.

Pop culture is definitely something everyone can relate to and it was something we were sure we would always have ideas for. We try to make it a point to stay up to date with current trends and happenings so that our design selection is always fresh."

Who would be interested in Poptastic? TV/Movie/Pop culture fans who don't want the usual logo tees. " We want our customers to feel like they're wearing something that other true-blue fans will be able to "get" and will make them ask, "where'd you get that shirt?!" We also have funny graphic tees for those who just want to wear designs that will elicit positive reactions from their friends."

I Am Switzerland. - I refuse to be affected by territorial disputes between mythical creatures. Design features an image of the Switzerland land mass riddled with vampire and werewolf symbols. Twilight fans will surely love this!

Even if he did not win the American Idol title, David Archuleta is still a winner in our book. (And isn't it sweet of David Cook to acknowledge little Archie in his interviews all the time? What a gentleman! They're BOTH shining stars).

Here are new t-shirt designs for showing support to the little guy, mostly in white & blue to match his official Idol summer tour colors.


Archie is My Hero - a shirt design based on that adorable, now-famous Guitar Hero commercial Archie made, complete with a silhouette of him in white shirt & boxers.



***

I'll Stand By Archie - He sang "Stand By Me" -- now you Arch Angels can show him that yes, you'll stand by him all the way.



***

Little David is a Star - that's a guarantee! His star is shining brighter than ever now that the pressure is off.



***

I Heartchuleta - A cute design that spells out "I heart David Archuleta" in symbols! The text "I Heartchuleta" is spelled out at the back of some of the light colored shirts.
