    Unfortunately dstined4gr8ness failed to submit an entry and has been automatically eliminated from this round. Hope to see you next time :)

    Also ILuvJonathanTogo and shazza_018 decided to use their free passes for this challenge.

    Voting Rules:

    ~ Absolutely anyone may vote!
    ~ Vote for the Top 3 of least quality, and the Top 2 of best quality.
    ~ Votes for least quality Must have a reason, or they will not be counted. Reasons for best quality are strongly encouraged.

    (the following examples may have been "borrowed" from other sources)

    Good Examples:
    34: Text is oddly placed
    50: Icon is over sharpened
    62: Image is too blurry

    Poor Examples:
    96: I don't like the colour (personal preference)
    52: Tiny text/decorative brushes are unreadable (it's supposed to be that way)

    And now the icons *angel choir*

    Least

    10- the facial color is a little to pink, the bckgrnd is nice

    3- I love the icon, but their is a piece of his suit showing out of the icon. It kind of draws you to it.

    2- Gorgeous icon, but I find the right side of the face a little to bright, kind of blends in with the right side yellow color

    Best

    18- I love everything about this icon, the double reflection, the lighting. It all blends beautifully

    17- Goregous coloring, very clear, and great job with the text(Great Sexy Icon)I love that:)

    This is harder than voting in the other challenges, but I like that we have to justify our picks (occupational hazzard, I suppose...too many years teaching Geometry where you have to justify everything).

    Least

    12: a little too dark
    13: text is dificult to read
    11: coloring is off, face is greenish while background is very bright

    Best

    2: simple design, excellent coloring
    5: again, good coloring, especially on a dark cap

    ^ Twiztid4Togo, you have to choose 3 of least quality icons for me to count your votes. :)

    16 - Overall the look and feel is grainy. Also Grissom's skin color is similar to that of the background causing him to blend in a bit.
    13 - The text is hard to read and the overall icon has a blurry/movement feeling.
    15 - Cropping is too severe, cutting off that much and not doing anything else to the icon leaves it unblanaced.
