Lesser:
#01 - the light effects don't work with the images
#2 - the icon is overly sharpened and too dark
#2 - the icon is quite dark and strangely cropped
#02 - The crop is akward and does very little for the subject. Also the coloring and the texture add very little to the image.
#4 - reason: the picture is a bit blurry and doesn't stand out from the background enough.
#6 - the colouring is too yellow
06 - coloring too dark
06 - The coloring is too dark and the grid texture isn't flattering
#09 - texture/s and border do not enhance the icon, rob's face is washed out/overpowered
#9 - The icon is looks over sharpened and speckled.
09 - The grain texture so does not fit well and the black border is pixleated and pland. The coloring is pretty bad to. And save in .png!
9 - not the greatest crop, black border is too thick and therefore draws attention away from the intended focal point and the colouring isn't particularly attractive
9 - The texture over the face does not look good, it makes the icon look scratchy, and lowers the overall quality.
#09 - The gurnge texture subracts from the subject, overpowering the image. The icon would have come out much better minus the textures, as the crop could have been intresting.
9 - The textures used, both the the grey, papery one and the black border don't suit the image. The image has been set to darken, and parts of the papery background are visible, making the icon look unprofessional. The border doesn't help the icon either.
009 - The icon is too over sharpened.
#13 - the texture is to white compared to the image and makes the icon look unbalanced.
13 - The colouring is nicely done of the image, but the use of a texture (I think it's a texture, the ripped looking one around Rob's head) looks strange when it ends near his neck, making the colours change. The texture/pattern on the left makes the icon look dirty and unbalanced.
13 - texture does not go well with icon too much
#14 - contrast is too high, rob is washed out
14 - The coloring is pretty bad. The textures just don't work with the photo, it may just be because of the coloring, not to sure. And next time save in .png.
14 - coloring off and image too sharp
14 - rob's features look undefined from coloring
14 - The icon is oversharpened
#14 - The coloring makes the icon look oversharpened
16 - there is too yellow in this icon, it covers completely the subject, and Rob is hardly visible
#16 - Too much yellow and not enough Rob. The text/texture overpowers the icon too much.
#16 - reason: it's hard to tell that it's robert, the text doesn't quite fit the icon and there is no focus to the icon
#16 - Rob is not recognizable anymore; his outline flows into the rest of the icon (maybe too much contrast before the yellow came into play?); the text is a bit too distracting /drawing the attention of the viewer away
#16 - The text of the texture/background overwhelms the icon and distracts from the image
17- the icon is too bright and with low contrast
17 - the icon is too bright, washing out Rob's facial features a lot
019 - Rob's face isn't clear and the icon lacks a texture to give it variety.
020 - The texture covers up too much of the icon's details and the font is too dark making it unreadable.
#20 - the texture is not blended well
20 - the text doesn't fit, and the icon seems too blurry
#20 - it's hard to make rob out behind the texture used. the font/text choice is poor & barely readable.
#20 - Overall, the icon is too yellow in color and the text fades in to the icon too much which makes it hard to read.
#20 - reason: the text is hard to read and there's not quite enough contrast.
20 - Good cropping and cut out. No coloring and the font deco like the blue shadow around is not all that great. Got the right idea but the texure placement and such need more work.
#20 - the font is a bit overwhelming yet hard to read; Rob lacks contrast (possibly because a texture was put on top of him); it looks like the light(white?) texture was
simply cut off near the bottom of the icon making the icon look unfinished
#20 - The crop is nice, however the text and the texture don't seem to compliment the image or each other.
#20 - the overall look is cluttered and the text is unreadable.
20 - A decorative font in black with white shadow is not a good thing, making the text illegible.
20 - Looks really washed out and the text is just weird.
20 - The texture over the image without any overlaying of the original image makes it all look washed out. The colour of the text doesn't look very attractive against the browns and also isn't the easiest to read especially with the shadow
20 - The text is nearly unreadable and the texture doesn't match the icon
#20 - The texture/coloring of the icon gives the image too much of an embossed look which lessens the quality of the icon, and the text is very hard to read.
20 - not enought contrast & awkward looking text
20 - The textures don't match the image and the text is very hard to read.
20 - over softened; text not so readable or fitting
21 - scratchy and oversharpned and the cut is odd
21 - The coloring is good, but nothing is dynamic here. The subject needs more contrast.
24 - The subject is too blurry. Needs sharpened.
Best:
#1 - reason: his face placement/cropping in the icon is great, and the texture is pretty
#02 - the cropping is surprising and experimental; achieved really well and the coloring enhances the jackets accents, making the icon fresh and different.
3 - Beautiful and simple. Even though sky textures are becoming overused, it still suits the image and compliments the colours you have used on Rob. Love the crop.
03 - Coloring is great! Sharpend just enough and the sky texture is fabulous and looks great.
#3 - love the whole icon
03 - good use of textures and colouring
003 - Simple and pretty coloring, and the highlighting of the background's details made the icon interesting to look at.
#4 - the blending
5 - The crop of it is amazing!
#5 - good crop
#5 - great tones + texture/stock image use
#07 - The crop and the coloring really compliment the image.
07 - This icon is fabulous. The coloring is great. Can't tell if a texture is used or not and that's kind of great.
10 - The crop is original and the coloring is nice
11 - The coloring is rich and saturated here. Nice choice with this particular subject.
11 - really interesting use of different textures, gorgeous and bright colouring, interesting crop, good sharpening
#11 - a bit sharp but overall great composition
14 - Very different use of text and coloring, which works well for a much bolder statement.
#15 - the texture looks great as a background and doesn't overpower the image, the overall coloring is balanced
15 - very beautiful colouring, interesting use of textures, good sharpening
#15 - The coloring and style of the icon is creative and eye catching
#15 - nice colouring (maybe a tad too red) and background idea
#18 - reason: the colouring and texture is gorgeous
#18 - The color and crop of this icon are great. It's a simple icon but it is executed very well.
19 - Love the use of the text! and the colouring is gorgeous!
19 - the text is simple and not overdone.
21 - nice cropping and colouring
# 22- reason The use of the texture works well, as the negative space could have been boring, however the coloring and the texture help make the icon.
#22 - The rumbled texture catches the eye and the coloring draws focus to the image of Rob eventhough it is small.
22 - great cropping and use of texture!
#22 - The coloring is nice and the background texture makes it a very fun and interesting icon.
23 - The general composition and the choice of b&w are good
23 - amazing use of black and white, text is fitting and cropping superb
23 - Beautiful crop and very original composition. The texture behind Rob creates an interesting background, while the text balances the image out and compliments it very well. Love it.
23 - the background texture is simple and compliment the picture
023 - Creative use texture, and the way the image was placed doesn't make it look like your ordinary black and white icon, which is refreshing.
