#4 - reason- I really like the crop on this icon but it doesn't look like the artist did much in the way of coloring/brightening and the filling in of the background looks spotty.

#1 - reason - I like the silver/gray tones and muted coloring on Willow's hair along with the subtle light texture used.

1 - (this is really hard because they are all great this week) I like the blurred border, but wish it was less around Oz's face so he felt like part of the image and not just background.

2 - Love the way you split the image, not with a straight line, but on the same diagonal as Buffy's eyeline. Clever!

Hello. Can you please expand on your least favorite vote? What about it is making it not stand out against the others? What could have been done to improve it. Thank you.

I kinda feel bad for criticizing other's icons when I haven't survied one single round. Actually I feel bad for criticizing. Also, I like them all and it's hard to choose. But then again - with so few participants other voters are needed. I'm definitely not speaking of the 'worst' though, cause there's no such thing. So here goes ( ... )

#2 - I like the colouring of this one, but the cropping looks awkward. (Spike with a very small head and massive body in the top half; Buffy being cut off right under her nose in the bottom half.)

#1 - Lovely lighting and contrast, perfectly fitting the mood of this scene. The hint of colour in Willow's hair is a nice touch.
