Best Quality
5- I love the colour of this icon and the white strip behind the text :)

19-The icon is too busy.It has too many brushes that just don't compliment the icon instead they make it look too busy.
11-The colouring is too yellowish; as a result, there is no color balance.

Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Oh, here we go again. I feel bad voting because I don't really have icon skills to compare myself to these people. Anyway, I realise the biggest number of votes the better, and well, we all have an opinion, right? :p :)

11. Part of Speed's face looks to yellow while the rest seems too dark. Also, I think you used text in it, but it's barely visible.
17. It seems a bit blurry. The yellow isn't very pleasant, I think a better colouring work could have been done there.
21. The colouring could have been better worked, and the brush in the corner doesn't seem to add anything to the icon.

Best Quality:
24. I love the whole atmosphere the icon seems to capture. The expression in Speed's face, the background colour and the text, too. While it is simple, and looks soft, it gives a good serenity/nostalgy feeling to me which I believe fits.
03. I really like the simpleness of it. Sometimes less really is more. The text is well placed and the colouring looks natural. Pretty in general.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

I'm voting, though I must say I really hate saying bad things about people's work :(

Least:
2. The text looks kinda grainy and the colors don't match the icon and look busy.
7. The coloring makes it look kinda washed out, which may have been the point, but to me it looks boring.
17. It looks like it has just been cropped, and nothing else. Maybe a little contrast would have made it better.

Gosh! This is too hard and it's only the first round! *cries*

Ok, best:
12. I love the border thingie! It matches very well. (don't you love my technical terms?)
16. Even though the word vulnerable annoys me, I really like the coloring in this ion and the way you did the border. Very nice :)
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

21 - The icon is too dark and grainy and the brush in the corner doesn't really fit. Only text would have been enough.
19 - Speed looks a bit blurry. The text brush on the left doesn't seem to fit. The texture is kind of distracting.
17 - The icon lacks "something special", e.g. some text or a brush. It's too plain. And Speed's face and the background are almost the same colour, he could stand out a bit more.

Best Quality

03 - Simple but effective. Clear colours, the text isn't too eye-catchy or distracting.
24 - The text and the light effect really fit into the icon. It looks as if it was fading which makes it look subtle instead of overpowering.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Least quality:

17 - blurry and plain. Doesn't seem like there's anything done to the icon.
14 - poor cropping and plain colour
2 - text is pixely, and I'm not sure if it's meant to be that way, but it never looks very good on a smooth picture.

Best quality:
20 - simple. I really like the colouring and the cropping, and that you didn't use any words. It speaks for itself.
1 - I love the fading of it and the colours. :) very pretty.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Keep the votes coming folks! There's 25 icons, and there's no reason that there shouldn't be at least that many votes :)
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Least Quality:

17 - The icon kind of looks like the original image just cropped and resized. It's quite plain and blurry.
21 - The icon is oversharpened and it looks too dark and grainy.
14 - The brush used doesn't seem to fit the icon and distracts from the subject. Also the crop might be a little bit too tight.

Best Quality:

3 - I really like the colouring. It's quite pretty!
12 - Nice colouring, and the borders match the icon nicely.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Least:

17 - Not much has been changed, and it looks a litle too blury.

11 - I'd love it a lot, but it's a bit too dark in comparison to the brush/text.

12 - I think there is too much going on, I din't know where to look.

Best:

8 - love the positioning of the text :lol:

4 - I like the combination of the black and white and the color. It reminds me of how he's not around anymore (represented by the lack of color) and how the world must carry on regurdless(represented by the color). Or maybe I'm thinking about it too much. :rolleyes:
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Least:

17 - It looks like it has only been cropped, very plain.
19 - The whole image seems low quality, both image and textures/brushes.
11 - It's too dark and yellow/green.

Best:

20 - It's nice simple cropping and the coloring fits the image.
24 - It is a good coloring and the effect with the text gives it a nice touch.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

Least:

14- The crop is too close and the brush overpowers the image.

17- Nothing much seems to have been done to this icon, and the images is a bit blurry.

19- The imgage is grainy and the brush doesn't really fit with the icon.

Best:

1- This icon is beautiful. The texture and text really fit nicely.

12- Coloring and texture are really nice and give it a nostalgic feeling.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

11 - the image is too yellow/green
17 - too plain, looks like not much has been done with the original image
14 - the crop takes away a lot of Speed

Best:
07 - excellent choice of font, looks great with the image
15 - simple, great crop, text and the colors round up the greatness of this icon. Less is more which I appretiate.
 
Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

I'm hoping to end the voting in a few days, but I'd really like some more votes before then. *Gets out vodka* Any takers?

Re: LIMS #5: Challenge 1 ~ Voting!

LEAST QUALITY

23: The icon is kind of blurry, and I can barely read the text because it blends in to much with the icon.

17: The icon is kind of... "right there." the coloring is too yellow. The cropping is nice, but maybe you could have added some text, or a tiny text brush?

14: I don't really like the swirly brush you have on there, and the cropping cuts most of Speed off the icon.

BEST QUALITY

8: I love the walk-e-talkee effect thing. You chose a good font!

16: I really like the border, and the coloring is great.
