god i can't wait until i get dsl and then these pages will load much faster.
i'm reading this book right now, so i'm excited. hehe.
anyways, onto the reviews. (it's long, but hey, i like them long. hehe.)
a- good picture. the text works well with it...maybe a different border or something? but it looks pretty good. b- again, maybe it's the border that is bugging me. i like the font, but it seems a little too big. maybe a little smaller (not a lot though). try lightening the picture a little bit (duplicate and set one to screen, soft light, or lighten would probably work.) c- just make the text a little smaller so it doesn't interefere with the chicken picture. good coloring on it though. d- the font needs to be blended better with it (maybe a different font would work better?), and the coloring on the picture needs a little something more, it seems too plain. e- i like the idea, although the arrow gets annoying after a while cause it's pointing to her eyebrows...but it's a good icon. maybe crop the picture a little differently to give it something extra. f- hehe. funny. i like this one, although a stronger font/different color one may make it more "grr-ish" (don't think that's a real word, but okay.) g- you should probably move the text somewhere else, maybe down one of the sides? it seems to interefere with her obviously glee-ful face. i like the border/cropping though. h- i like this one. the border and the butterfly work well with it. the text is good, (and i don't know for sure how this would turn out) but maybe a softer text, like a cursive/handwritten one? i'm not sure though, but it could. it's still good though. i- something about it is off, but i can't really place it. if i do i'll let you know, but it just seems to be missing something. maybe some color in the ice cream part? (like just the actual ice cream, and make the entire picture black and white?) j- love it. no complaints. the font looks awesome with it, and the coloring is kick ass. k- the line-y texture on it is a little much, maybe lessening that would work. l- a stronger border would accentuate the picture more, but it's good the way it is. what's the little squiggle/line thing underneath the text? m- i dunno if the big M behind "meds" is necessary, and maybe a border or something would work well. n- love it, but move the text off of her forehead. o- haha. when i first read it i thought you were trying to say "odd" and i was like..."uh, you spelled it wrong..." but then i realized it was OD. hehe. anyways, i like it, but maybe erase some of the border that's covering her left eye. p- like it, but lessen the lines throughout the pic. i like the border/cropping. q- i'm not sure how i feel about the butterfly in it. maybe some blue textures/gradients to the pic? r- i'm not sure how the picture works with the text, but it's a good idea for an icon. maybe a different pic? s- the boxes down the side bug me, but that may just be me. t- love it, but i think the black needs to be behind the whole background. fill in the white area around her hair line and lessen the lighting around the border. u- move the font so it's down the right side, and it'll be rad. v- i think a more flow-y font would work well here. the lighting is good though. w- love it. no comments here either. x- maybe some red/yellow/pink coloring would make it seem more exciting? y- like the idea, maybe a semi-thick black line down the middle, and make the guy in black and white? i don't know how that'll come out though. z- make one of the zzzz's smaller than the other. it's funny though. alternate o- i like it, but set the opacity lower on the heart.
if my ideas are stupid, feel free to ignore me and put me on your "people i'd shoot in the face if ever given the chance" list. i like most of the styles, and the ideas behind them are good. feel free to hate me for my constructive criticism (i can never spell that word right on the first try), but you asked, and i gave. congratulations on finishing the set!

p- like it, but lessen the lines throughout the pic. i like the border/cropping.
q- i'm not sure how i feel about the butterfly in it. maybe some blue textures/gradients to the pic?
r- i'm not sure how the picture works with the text, but it's a good idea for an icon. maybe a different pic?
s- the boxes down the side bug me, but that may just be me.
t- love it, but i think the black needs to be behind the whole background. fill in the white area around her hair line and lessen the lighting around the border.
u- move the font so it's down the right side, and it'll be rad.

w- love it. no comments here either.
