Alrighty, people...I've got thirteen icons and two passes so far, which means *does impressive mental math* that I'm still missing three entries! You've still got a decent amount of time, so don't fret too much yet, but just make sure you don't forget. ;)

Challenge #2 - No Selective Colouring - VOTING

+Vote for the TOP 3 of least quality. Include a valid reason for each vote, otherwise it won't be counted.
+ANY member of this board may vote.
+The makers of the two icons with the highest number of votes will be eliminated from the challenge.
+When voting, keep in mind that these icons were made without the use of selective colouring.

Examples of good reasons (courtesy of Ann):
50: The text is oddly placed
68: The colouring is overpowering
72: The icon is oversharpened
56: The icon is too blurry

Examples of bad reasons:
51: I hate the colour pink. (Personal Preference)
78: The tiny text/decorative brush is unreadable. (Because they’re supposed to be that way.)

The following participants are using their free passes for this round:
+ dstined4gr8ness
+ ILuvJonathanTogo
+ roximonoxide
+ CSI_Kat

As well, it is time to say goodbye to chocolate_bunnys, who has decided to drop out of LIMS in order to better focus on schoolwork. :) Thank you for participating in the last round, and good luck with your schooling!

Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity - Signups now

Gosh, it's still so hard! :lol: Great icons everyone, but I have to vote, so... :(

10-- It's a little blurry around Stella's face
05-- The colors look a little washed out and pale and the text is a little difficult to read in contrast to Calleigh
13-- It's a little too dark and the colors are a little rough and overpowering
 
Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity - Signups now

Best of luck with your school work chocolate_bunnys. :)

Yikes, these icons are amazing this time around but alas...

13: Too much contrast and it's a little on the dark side. (That sounded so Darth Vader :lol:)
10: Stella's features could use more sharpening.
03: The text is oddly placed which separates the icon's subject in two -- Perhaps placing it further from the middle would deem easier to focus on the icon as a whole instead of just the text.
 
Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity - Signups now

10-stella could use a little more sharpening, and it seems that the image is skewed a bit.

13- the contrast is a little overpowering- it could use a little more brightness to balance it out. Also the text kind of blends into the background and makes it difficult to read.

3- the placement of the text takes away from the icon, i think that maybe it was placed there because it was hard to read anywhere else, but putting a little darker background behind the text would have made it a little more aesthetically pleasing.
 
Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity - Signups now

Great work everyone!

13 - The colouring is too dark
09 - The colours seem a bit off in this icon
10 - Needs to be sharpened a bit more.
 
Re: LIMS #4 - The Ultimate Test of Creativity - Signups now

5- I think I might understand what you went for here. The antique look? Unfortunately, it doesn't really work for this icon, and the text is a bit boring.
9- Color is too orangish, and it's hard to see Danny's face.
11- Very plain, the grey makes the icon look boring. I like the effects on the outside of the circle, though.

Everyone did a great job here :)
