I had a feeling I would have been. >< Oh well. Can I have the critiques? And I'm guessing that most of them say, 'too bright'.

Critique:

Off all the icons in this voting this is the last one I personally like. The image is nice but I think it's "overshining"? How do I put it... to much light/lighten. THat makes the quality of the image go down. Also I don't like the border colour.

The coloring is too bright, more could have been done to make the icon look more attractive.

Reason: The multitude of bright colors lessen the focus of the icon, plus it's an eyesore.

There's a light texture (I think) which covers the subject's face and also makes it fuzzy and hard to see the details. The crop is unimaginative and boring.

Reason: the coloring is way too strong on this icon, and the border doesnt go along with it at all. the border is overpowered, actually. tone down the sharpening quite a bit, because the icon is way too bright.

The image is oversharpened and overcontrasted so that the person's face is hard to make out.

The icon has no focus what so ever. The cropping isn't really great, and there's nothing very interesting about this icon.

One thing I have to reply to a comment. I didn't hit the sharpen button once.

Critique:

Font is kind of blurry around the edges and the coloring of the image just does not work for me. It's too pale in some places, too bright in others.

The image looks coloured in but the colouring is quite strange, her skin is completely white and gives her a quite inhuman look. The copy on the left is pixelated and too flooded with colour.

Critique:

I see pixels. It's something that happens all the time with icons but here I can see it clearly and it's avoidable in my opinion (maybe to much sharp?). Also the colouring isn't nice, it's really dark. The brush and the place of text also don't compliment the icon.

Reason: The textures used are barely noticible, plus the text placement is distracting and ill-placed.

The over sharpened returns! You don't need to sharpen the image so much! Also the flower looks weird and rather dead, and the text is boring and awful. Times New Roman is not a good font here.

Good Comments:

I feel that the expression on Sora and the colouring of the image give a very innocent and perhaps a bit frightened look and work well together, even though the brush and text are a bit awkward.
