I almost forgot to vote! :eek:

Least
10 - Text is oddly placed...the face is kind of dark and doesn't stand out well.
22 - Too dark...everything blends together.
27 - The image is too small (too much empty space) and the shading is a bit odd.

5 - The background is very interesting and has nice coloring that fits with the image.

Re: Talk LIMS #7: Challenge One ~ Voting!

Least
14. picture is distorted
22. too dark which has everything blended together
24. text is too hard to read and looks out of place and the coloring is a bit odd

Best
19. Love the coloring and the light effect
8. clean and simple and the text is perfect with the coloring behind it
 
Re: Talk LIMS #7: Challenge One ~ Voting!

Least
10 - The format has degraded the image quality, and the text is near unreadable. (unintentionally so)
14 - Images need to maintain aspect ratio when they are resized.
24 - It's good to experiment with color but Hue/Saturation controls only go so far. Also, if the crop hadn't been so tight the text wouldn't interrupt your subject matter

Best
26 - Great use of negative space and an interesting crop.
27 - Great coloring, I'm not sure that last texture on there was necessary, but one way or the other it's original. There's nothing more refreshing than seeing originality and being able to see when someone just tried something different for a change. Kudos.

Wow a lot of votes, these do a lot better than the regular icon challenges in getting votes. And it also shows how different everyone's taste in. I've seen the best icons are getting the least favorite votes, whatever the reason it gives everyone a chance.

I thought voting was closing today, or is it at a cetain time?

Er, I guess it depends on the time zone, it should be late (?) afternoon at Meg's place, so the voting could still be open a few hours...possibly...I'll stop babbling now :p
 
Re: Talk LIMS #7: Challenge One ~ Results!

I apologize for not getting this done yesterday. I've been battling a migraine, which makes it difficult to look at a computer screen for more than a few minutes at a time. I'm feeling much better today. However, I had major problems with my photoshop program when I was trying to make banners. It took me about twice as long as usual to make them *grr*.

Also, as I was working on the banners, I decided that Mod's Choice was too boring, so I changed it ;) Now it should be right up there with YouWowedQuoth, The Gah! Award, and AdzCollapsedInAwe, as we've had in previous LIMS :lol:

Alright, that's enough outta me. I won't make you wait any more ;)
