Round #3 - Challenge #1 - Results

Jun 02, 2010 19:50

I am so happy that I didn't have to bug y'all for votes. I am sorry this is delayed. It's been thunder storming here a lot lately & I am on a desktop. I don't have my computer on while it storms since I have blown out a power supply on a computer before that had a surge protector on it. I don't trust it. Anywho, onto the rather surprising results ( Read more... )

I thought it was well done, but I didn't think the background you chose went particularly well with the cap/theme. It was definitely a good icon, but I ended up choosing another over it because stripes and dark green don't really feel like Dark Willow to me.

Oh, thanks for your opinion! :) The background was from the original cap, I didn't change it, but yeah, I enhanced saturation, so it might have looked a bit too cheerful. :P

Negative:
#8 - The coloring on Willow is a bit too yellow and the texture just doesn't fit, its a weird choice for textures, another one would have made the icon better.

Positive:
#8 - Clean, simple, and a cute crop.

#2 - Compared to the other icons the coloring is dull (not bright or colorful, not dull in the boring way) and the text doesn't fit in well.

2 - reason: The border on this just doesn't work. The crop isn't horrible, but I don't notice that any coloring's been done here at all.

The text doesn't work either. The placement isn't stunning, but what really hurts it is the font. That's just not a great one for icons, and though it's conceivable that someone could get it to work, it doesn't work here.

This one is also a jpeg, though luckily it doesn't look horribly jpeggy.

2 - The text placement and font chosen in this icon is not as good as it could be.

2 - the text seems squashed into the space above their heads and makes it look akward.
