Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #09 - the colour washes out the depth of the image + the high contrast makes the image appear over sharp
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #03 - The crop is interesting but the text placement looks odd + dominating and overall the image lacks contrast + is a little dark

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #06 - Beautiful use of texture
SECOND-FAVORITE (+1 points): #07 - very creative + well balanced

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #10 - The colors are too bright an overtake the icon. Also, the colors splitting in the middle distort Penn's face so it's hard to make out.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #08 - The texture used looks like Penn's throat is being slashed, and the repeated image does nothing but log up the icon.

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #12 - Good use of distant crop and the use of light colors in a black and white icon.
SECOND-FAVORITE (+1 points): #03 - Intriguing crop, good use of coloring to match the mood of the icon, and great font and color choice on the text.

Just wondering if you could check the number for your 2nd worst as the reason doesn't match the number you've written?

Oops sorry about that, I was too groggy. :P *deletes weird vote*

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #05 - The composition of the icon is odd, it might look better without his face on the right.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #02 - The crop is too centered, making the icon look plain.

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #10 - I love the effect, very creative!
SECOND-FAVORITE (+1 points): #12 - The composition and crop is great!

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #03 - The typeface and angle of the font doesn't match with the photo, the crop seems to be a little off.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #11 - The 3D kind of grid behind the photo doesn't really work .

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #07 - Like the mash up and the tones.
SECOND-FAVORITE (+1 points): #04 - Like the tones and the texture, the "B" (that's what it looks like to me, ha) overlay.

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #05 - I like the concept of blending a larger and smaller version of one image together, but this just comes across as two very separate entities, and as such is a little stagnant.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #03 - Text placement, lack of overall coloring on the actual image.

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #01 - Coloring and crop.
SECOND-FAVORITE (+1 points): #07 - Composition.
