well, i like the colors/composition quite a bit, I think i gave you a 10.

the two hands in the photo are distracting. the time capsule concept is supposed to capture a moment in time, not now showing someone what you used before. also, it's a bit cluttered visually. but don't get me wrong, it's a great concept. i didn't score it but i'm thinking a 6-7.

i take it you depicting intellivision being the only video game system to survive the industry crash in 1983.,.... cos the system itself arrived in 1980... (sorry, i'm a video game fan of huge proportions lol)... good idea mate...

Nice shot.... I miss my Intellivision! Those little plastic screen things that you slide into the controler were the best!

Nice idea. It also looks like an old 80s picture.

The books and tv could be a little more in focus.

Totally has the eighties ad. feel, with one exception...the t.v. The image would have been more effective, in my opinion, if the top third had been cropped out.

OMG!!! I miss my Intellivision. I always thought it was better than Atari. But if I'm going to nit-pick, that TV is about 15yrs ahead of it's time for that era. HAHA, no big deal.

Intelevisions were awesome! Wish the screen were in better focus, bracelets add a nice touch.

That's a blast back in time. The lighting seems a bit harsh here...especially on the TV screen. Looks like it might have been taken with a flash and the light reflected off the screen.

NO WAY! I had one of these! This is sooooo! cool! I even had the game you are playing! Good shot, the only thing I'm not thinking is "totally cherry" in this shot is the shadow to the right of the TV and that the TV really isn't from 83 but hey you had to save the Intellivision right? GOOD LUCK!
