Challenge #7- Warrick Lovin'- VOTING

- Vote for 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 icons with the top 2 number of votes will be eliminated.

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

Please note that the following icons were made without the use of adjustive sharpening and/or blur tools.

Ta-da! :D

Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

Jeez, that´s difficult

#7 is too plain and a bit dark
#4 too bright, the white on the left is distracting
#5 it´s a nice idea but somehow the image of Warrick is washed out
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

Ooh, so difficult.

01. The brush/border is overpowering and bright, Warrick is lost in the background.
04. Too icon is too light and the white brush seems out of place.
03. The crop is slightly unfavourable, leaving a lot of empty space.
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

Well this is next to impossible.

01. The border is too overpowering, takes away from Warrick.
05. Not enough contrast, too washed out.
07. I love everything about this icon except for the fact that it's just too dark.

(BTW, the makers of 03 and 06 are extremely talented...everyone is, these look great and you should all be proud :))
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

5 - Image is blurry
3 - Too much contrast
1 - The white is too distracting
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

01 - Border is overpowering
07 - Too dark
03 - Weird crop
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

Gosh, this is getting hard!

4. It's too bright, and the background is overwhelming
7. Too dark, very plain
5. Too washed out
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

01: The white border is a little distracting.
04: The icon is too bright.
03: The crop is not the best.
 
Re: LIMS Round 3: The Ultimate Test of Creativity

I'm with everyone else - the voting just doesn't get any easier - fantastic icons all! :D

However:
07 - Rather plain and a little dark
01 - The border brush is over-powering and makes Warrick fade into the background rather than be the focus of the icon.
02 - I'm not sure whether this counts as a good reason but, to my mind, the text and the cap chosen for icon #2 to not match thematically: the text says "despair" but Warrick appears to be laughing not desperate. Other than this, its a beautiful icon. They all are.
