8 Negative Votes, One Positive Vote
-The b&w part of the icon is blurry and grainy.
-Too much information and plain weird. It seems like it started as something trendy and ended up just a big confusion.
-Too much use of the duplicating images. Very hard to see what the icon-maker was aiming for. All images are blurred and badly coloured.
-the icon is a bit blurry, and the top picture of Kate looks overrun withe effects - her hair is blue, the diagonal lines are a bit distracting, etc.
-the cap of Kate is overused in the icon, it is very hard to find a focal point.
-too dark
-The positioning of the images are off.
-Too much repitition of the image

Challenge 01 - Peoples Choice
One Negative Vote, Five Positive Vote
- I don't like the red blob, 'nor the border on the side, I think they detract from the actual focus(Jack)
+ I like it's overall simplicity, the cropping and the coloring; it's all great.
+ Love the cropping and colouring. I think the red circle is just unnessary and it would've looked good without it.
+ his icon actually focuses on his body rather than his face, like the other icons. Unique, and it caught my eye right away. Very pretty.
+ Nice coloring and the cropping is interesting.
+ I really liked the crop in this, and the choice to go with elements like the red circle and black with white text area really paid off in making this icon look unique and stand out.
Challenge 02
Three Negative Votes, One Positive Vote
- the concept is interesting, but the cropping is too close and some of the images are hard to discern
- The pictures are too small to see clearly. (And it's a lizard, not a frog. Though that's just my anal nature talking.)
- The icon is way too busy; the choice of the layout (the 4 boxes) doesn't work for this picture.
+Its cute and interesting cropping and coloring, even though that isn't a frog. :D

Challenge 01
Four Positive Votes, One Negative Vote
-Though it's a very creative icon, the black box cuts off the image in a very awkward spot. The quality of the top two images in the four-image square is so reduced that it's impossible to tell exactly what part of the original images they're from
+I love the repeated image on the bottom, and the crop with the black bar is really pleasing to the eye.
+I love the cropping and the brush.
+I like the cropping of Shawn's face, the black bottom and the little Shawn pictures work fine with the rest of the icon
+love the texture, the boxes/text are well-placed
