    Re: LIMS #5: Round 2 Voting!

    Least Quality
    19 - It is grainy around Aiden's face and the texture doesn't really fit the icon.
    17 - It is too "washed out". You can hardly see details of Aiden and her surroundings.
    03 - Not enough colour balance. There isn't enough contrast between the two Aidens, it seems as if both were fading.

    Best Quality
    20 - Great! Nice colours and a very cool effect. It looks kind of mysterious. Well done.
    01 - The effect around Aiden draws the attention to her and isn't distracting. Good colouring.

    Least:
    01 - i love the circle, but i think the image looks a little dull and dark. Also, I found the text to large and distracting.
    17 - the image is very faint and bright, i can hardly see her there.
    19 - the texture appears too 'placed' it doesn't seem to fit.

    Top:

    12 - love the sparkles! She looks magical and very pretty.
    7 - Nice font and good crop
    13 nice crop and lovely color

    17 - The colouring makes it look washed out, also the cropping and flipping of the picture looks odd.
    19 - The texture looks placed, it doesn't fit in nicely.
    07 - I like the crop, but Aiden is too yellow.

    Re: LIMS #5: Round 2 Voting!

    I'd like to have at least as many votes as I have icons, and we're not quite there yet.

    If you entered an icon there is absolutely no reason for not voting.

    Please keep them coming!

    3. Her face is too washed out.
    19. The texture doesn't look right with the image.
    13. The coloring seems off.

    Best
    1. I like the effect of the circle around the image. The font is simple but nice.
    6. I like the text. It makes me laugh. The crop is simple and nice.

    Re: LIMS #5: Round 2 Voting!

    Gosh, that's so hard! Some really great icons, guys! :)
    OK, I'll try...

    Least

    #17 - it's just too bright, no real contrast to the white background
    #19 - the texture doesn't fit plus it takes too much away from Aiden's face
    #03 - great idea, but the "original Aiden" is too dark, too much contrast, and the blending of the cloned one didn't work that well

    Best

    #01 - just perfect in my eyes: focus on Aiden, she's also very clear, great effect around her, text is perfectly placed - two thumbs up :)
    #02 - everything fits: cropping, the soft colors, the light and the text - again two thumbs up :)

    17 - It's a bit washed out
    08 - The text seems to jump out at you. It's too big in comparison to Aiden
    09 - too dark and seems a big oversharpened

    Top
    20 - love the cropping and the texture. this icon just stands out
    01 - love the effect and the text fits perfect

    Re: LIMS #5: Round 2 Voting!

    least:
    17-it looks a little washed out, and the rotation of the pic leaves kind of an odd crop.
    19-the texture in the corner is a bit odd and out of place and doesn't really have a cohessiveness with the rest of the icon.
    3- the high contrast makes it look a little washed out. and the cloning, although i love the idea, doesn't seem to fit with the cropping, and it makes the icon look a little crowded.
    top:
    13- the coloring is absolutely beautiful and completely makes aiden pop out, and i love how it seems to be soften but not blurry.
    20. i love the cloning in black and white and the textures used in the background and then the purple stripe used to make it stand out more it beautiful.

    Re: LIMS #5: Round 2 Results!

    Well I'm fine with that, I have stuff to do anyways.

    Can't really say I'm sad to go, either. Since I really didn't like the icon I sent in anyway.

    So have fun with this and I'll be back to vote.
