--I'm surprised to see icons with such a lack of textures from you, especially after your comments about not liking people who didn't 'change much' in their icons. xD I mean that in a /good/ sort of surprised, though; I like these. ♥ Namely 10, the 'variations', 37, 39, 23, 24, 26, aaaaaand...16. And of course the pic for 12's just cute (as they're so adorable together akjdskfg -shot-). xD

A few seem really "busy" to me, or I just don't care for the coloring, but that could of course be preference or my monitor, which I finally realised is set to be less bright than it can be, which I did years ago to help conserve power with it but since constructive criticism is a good thing...? Mostly it's in icons like 28 and 3.

BUT. It's great to see a post like this from you : D I'm glad you've discovered stock icons, by the way.~ <3 (And feel a little @___@ about how you're setting up asking for credit; I honestly can't see myself bothering to go through all that trouble. D: But. More power to ya. -shot-)

Not to butt in > > but that's actually par for the course for how most people want credit so I don't see how she's asking too much or asking one to go through "all that trouble" when most people ask for the same thing.

I appreciate you not butting in <3 but that's not what I meant. I meant that she'd made another graphic, just to show how to credit, something which I'd actually noticed was done in her comm with Jiyu. It had never occurred to me to do that here.

Obviously /asking for credit/ at all is something most people do (though not all, as I've found) and something I do myself on my posts. Simply sans the nice picture exampling it. xD

I do aim to please. xD

I had seen people make separate graphics as well. It really depends on the individual iconmaker but I've definitely seen people make the graphic to kind of walk people through it esp. if their stuff's been ganked in the past. It's just a preference thing, I suppose.

Like you, I just ask people nicely to credit me if they use my icons. xD

well i was talking mainly of icontest icons i'd seen where it simply looked like people cropped the image and upped the contrast. xD; though more lately, i kinda like icons with some nice colouring and maybe a subtle texture, nothing too busy. ;0; and hee, i'm glad you like them. (i worried the colouring on the 'fandom' icons (excluding BSSM) would come up 'blue' to you even though i chose a colouring that usually brings out skin tone. u____u ( ... )

Ahh, okay. xD Makes more sense. And eee yay, I love those kinds. ;; <3 And yes, they're lovely. (Ahh...a bit, yeah. Though as I mentioned in the strikeout text, I fiddled with my monitor settings, and hat helped a bit too. xD; -shot- Actually I thought a lot of them were shockingly yellow-tinted, and I'm a sucker for warmer colors, so. <3)

Fair enough. C:

Ditto to what I explained to Jamie. And seriously, all my posts request credit, so the confusion about my position on that is confusing to /me/... > >; thouhg I guess obviously you wouldn't have gone through all my posts, so.

(i hope not bad yellow tinted. ;_______; -shot-)

(If you're...playing with colors, surely you're aiming for a tint of SOMETHING? @_____@ No, not a bad yellow tinted, hence me specifically mentioning that I am a sucker for warmer colors, of which yellow happens to be. xD ♥ I LIKE that.)

Yes, and I'm glad I brought it up outside of LJ <3 --...well considering the amount of comments? xD;;; -shot- (And I mean from anyone, mind; Sarah doesn't even watch this comm, and Tori commented...once?) I'm glad you did look at them, though. ;0;

(aha, okay. xD i knew that, i was just hoping it didn't seem too obnoxious. u____u; i had to alter it a lot to each icon 'cos some came out hideous at first. @_____@;)

;; i love you, Kathryn; of course i'd look at anything you post. <3

(It's rather overpowering in some, yes, but. xD I'd rather see yellow than blue, myself. And...I think most things need to be fitted to each individual icon. xD <3)

;; Awwh. Thank you, love. ;0; <3
