It's Been a While...

since I put up any icons. And, to be honest, I haven't made very many at all lately, and some of them I'm not very happy with at all. :"> But for better or worse, here is the sum total of all the icons I've made since about, well, June. :P

Ooooh, I really like the one from Lady of Shallot. I also like the ones of Rose. But there's something meh about the colors in the last one of Blanche; they don't seem to compliment each other the way Rose's do. Maybe if the frame were black(er)?

[valiantarcher]

Thanks for the compliments! :) And thanks for the critique on the last Blanche one, too---the frame gave me a lot of trouble, but I didn't connect it to what was "off" about the icon. I'll see if I can change it at some point. :)

Well, it's always interesting to hear if I gave a correct or helpful diagnosis, so if you ever do play with it I'd love to know how it goes. :)

[valiantarcher]

I actually just played with it the other day. ;)) Does this look any better at all?

[meltintall3]

It does. :D

[valiantarcher]

Yay! :D I guess the next question then is, does it sufficiently fix the problem? ;))

[meltintall3]

No, the next question is, does that fit your vision for the icon when you started?

The answer to your question is, "It fixed the issue I saw." :)

[valiantarcher]

...I don't remember what my vision was (I, eh, actually try not to have too strong of ones because my icons never look like I hope they will), but I like this one, so... ;))

Yay! :D Thanks!
