WORST VOTE COMMENTS

#02 - the shadows in his face are really grainy.

#03 - Overpowering text, image colouring doesn't enhance the image.
#03 - The text placement is poor and covers tophers face. The crop also could have been more creative.
#03 - The crop is too close to put that much text on the icon, so it seems cramped, and the font colours don't go very well together.
#03 - the text overpowers the icon and distracts from what should be the focus, which is topher.
#03 - Poor font and color choice, the coloring of the image itself is too dull and dark.
#03 - The text is too dominating.
#03 - The crop is a little off (you cut off the lower half of his mouth), and the text is too much as well as the font & color choice not really matching the icon

#04 - undercontrasted, too dark, too blurry and the color is very monochrome.
#04 - The icon is too purple and unflattering. Topher looks a little on the radioactive side.
#04 - icon is a bit blurry. awkward hue could've been corrected as evident by the other icons.
#04 - The colouring is too blue and seems a bit washed out.
#04 - The coloring is interresting but the face is too blurred
#04 - the crop is nice but the coloring is too blue and is unflattering.
#04 - The icon is too blue. The maker should have messed around more with the color balance. It also appears somewhat blurry.
#04 - The purple coloring is too strong.

#05 - Topher is just floating in mid air. This never works. It would have looked better had the maker just placed him at the bottom.

#07 - too high of contrast. cropping is a bit awkward as it seems like the focus is topher's chin.
#07 - too sharpened and the coloring is too dull
#07 - the cropping is too centered for a close-up and makes the subject look constricted

#08 - Too much contrast and too much sharpen.
#08 - I like the crop but I think you did it a little too up close. Lowering the contrast a little would have helped tremendously.
#08 - the cropping makes it impossible to tell what the subject is doing or even who he is

#10 - The icon is oversharppen and overcontrasted.

FAVORITE VOTE COMMENTS

#01 - Great cropping.
#01 - the crop is great as are the lighting effects.
#01 - the black and white is solid, not too sharp.

#02 - very nice job on giving a natural look to the original dark cap

#05 - I like the original concept to this icon and the usage of the texture is nice.
#05 - wonderful composition. good use of negative space.
#05 - Very intersting compostion!

#09 - I like the crop and the black and white coloring.
#09 - The image was incredibly contrasted and hard to work with but you made it look easy. The crop gives a clear focus to the icon without overwhelming it in shadows.
#09 - Nice b&w work and cropping.
#09 - Crop is good and coloring is soft

#10 - Great crop and b/w contrast.
#10 - The crop is excellent and overall icon is done well.
