I'm an icon making machine!

I've got 12 new Buffy icons.... There would have been 20 but something happened and a bunch got deleted. :( *cries* But here's the latest batch. Those of you non-Buffy fans should give me non-Buffy ideas or something.

Hey, nice icons. You are def getting better. Suggestions are always helpful, so my suggestion is with text. I know when you start off you are always filled with the urge to use the largest text you can fit (took me forever to force myself out of that habit)...Try playing around with smaller sizes...Only some fonts look good small, so you may need to get some new fonts, and often times use the bold and italics...Also on number 4, something helpful may be to make the space between the lines smaller...Try lowering the Leading (you can find it in the text box that pops up)

Also an anti-alias might help with small text, I usually set mine to Crisp.

One font combo I really like using is Times New Roman, on Bold Italic with Faux Bold and Faux Italic, at Size 9 with a Leading of 7, Anti-Alias: Crisp, and Tracking at 200 (tracking changes the space between the letters).

I know there are many different tutorials for fonts out there that say which sizes work best with which fonts. Other then that, just keep at it. :)
