[ + ] I love the colors in this one, and the way the text and effects were laid out.
[ - ] "don't forget" is hard to read
[ - ] "don't forget" Text is difficult to read.
[ - ] The font is blurry in some places and pixelated in others. The image could use a bit more definition, as well.
[ + ] The typography is fantastic, the font and placement fits really well with the mood of the icon
[ - ] The font does not work well with the image, as it's rather hard to see; the placement and color of the text under emphasizes its significance. Also, it looks rather pixelated, especially the "O" in "OCT"
[ + ] I really like the image, and the colors on the image. It feels very fiery! The text however is very hard to read on the 'don't forget.'
[ - ] The icon, for me, is hard to look at because of the sudden split of light and dark. I would suggest more contrast, and no extra light textures.

[ + ] I love how it focused Ed's clock, I think that gave a deeper feel on the overall look of the icon. The fonts used are lovely and fitting too.
[ + ] Excellent balance and matching text to the image. The date being the script in opposition to the message works very well to make them stand out but still be easy to read.
[ + ] Good job incorporating the different fonts into your text. They match your image very well.

[ + ] Good use of light texture and small font, and a good choice of image.
[ + ] The text in this icon is beautiful! The color of the image is nice and bright. All the elements of this icon just work so well together!
[ + ] Very nice crop. The different fonts work very nicely together to provide a solid emotional impact when combined with the image.
[ + ] This icon is just dramatic! I love how the image was cropped with the text placed at the top part of the icon. I think the dark hues complemented the 'emotion' in this icon but the light texture added a nice effect to contrast it; great ( ... )

[ - ] Overall this one seems to be the least balanced. The double image on the text is a little distracting and makes it difficult to read. The big contrast from the white character background to the dark texture background is also odd with how small the actual character/text portion is in comparison to the whole.
[ - ] While I do like the composition, the image is rather blurred and the double-text effect just looks messy for me.
[ + ] this icon is gorgeous. it's well put together and fits the theme very well, i think. :]
[ - ] The double text is difficult to read. Also your cropping seems a bit arbitrary with the large unused space at the top.
[ - ] The icon seems a bit blank up at the top as well as a bit off-center. The text effect is an interesting idea, but it seems a bit hard to read unless you look from a distance.
[ - ] The duplication of the text makes it look blurry and the word 'forget' is a little difficult to read. The image also seems a bit cramped in the bottom half of the icon, perhaps changing the crop a bit ( ... )

[ - ] Too much light texture which makes the icon quite distracting and the font is quite pixel-ly as well.
[ - ] The text for the date is too dark, it fights with the background to be visible.
[ - ] I think the cropping could still be improved on this one if Ed wasn't too far off on the right side of the icon. Some parts of it are rather dark as well, I almost didn't notice Al was there. As for the text, the placement is good but I just wish another kind of font was chosen for '3 Oct. 11'.
