I love your icons, I really do. They're always so technically amazing, and creative, that it makes me want to know your thought process. Thank you for not falling into traps of following trends. Thank you so much.

devilwrites February 15 2006, 22:33:01 UTC

Your icons are spot on, very creative!

devilwrites February 16 2006, 00:47:15 UTC

Your icons are usually quite beautiful and very creative, although sometimes you seem to cover them in too much text. Still, you have a very unique style which is nice to see in this icon world.

Awesome idea, put it all on me. tearingapart.

tearingapart February 15 2006, 03:22:59 UTC

kick ass. The color of your stuff pops, and I've seen you go form beginner to advanced, you've improved so much.

tearingapart February 15 2006, 18:13:02 UTC

It seems like in various icons you can see all the elements of truly amazing icons, your downfall is that sometimes one of those elemts is missing. Example, in your most recent post, 94 (of Ron) is interesting cropping, but the image quality is a bit over pixilated. #3 has nice image quality and cropping, but the brush is a bit overwhelming. Sometimes it seems like you have a really good design and layout concept, but the brushes and light textures kind of take over the icon.
But bear in mind, there are also lots of icons here that nicely combine all the best without the problems. In particular 44, 97, 143 and 154. I'm just pointing out the problems because it seems like if you can solve the problems your icons will really jump even higher in quality!

If you sharpened instead of over doing the contrast it would make your icons look a ton clearer and much prettier. Also center crop=no.

I love your icons SO much, and I always have. You're so creative and imaginitive and I love your use of cropping and color. IN SHORT, YOUR ICONS ARE SEX.

I wish you would make icons more often! Seriously, you're batches are loved by me, but they are sooo few and far between these days! You have fabulous coloring!

However, I think this is one of those, growing things, so I'll do pluses and minuses:

I really adore your icons, you were one of my first fav icon makers but you hardly post any anymore which makes me sad! go make some now! :)

prettyfancy February 15 2006, 19:08:07 UTC

Your icons are beautiful- your coloring is unlike any I've seen. And I think you're especially good at iconning actors.
