copperysky,
kvetchurstalin PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU READ THE RULES CAREFULLY. If you don't follow the rules, I will NOT count your vote.
VOTING RULES:
- Voting will last 24 hours. The results will go up on March 12th, around 5 PM (EST). You are not required to vote, but it would definitely be appreciated. You do not need to be a participant to vote.
- Vote for the WORST (or lesser quality) icons. Vote according to the quality of the icons, NOT personal style preferences. (Keep the words "I don't like..." out of your votes. We want valid reasons based on actual quality.) Please try to be unbiased in your votes. Also take original cap quality into consideration when voting based on image quality. Keep in mind that the icon makers will probably be reading the reasons for your vote. Try to be constructive in your criticism, rather than saying that the icon sucks.
-Comment to this post with your vote for the TWO (2) WORST icons. With these TWO votes, you MUST provide a reason for your vote. If you do not provide an explanation as to why you've voted the icon off, your vote WILL NOT be counted. If I find that your reasoning is biased toward an individual icon maker or an individual style you may not like, your vote will NOT be counted. Comments are screened, and you will have the option to view the comments your icon received after the voting is over. They will remain anonymous.
-After you vote for the TWO lesser quality icons, you'll be voting for your ONE FAVORITE ICON. You don't have to give a reason, although you can if you like. ONLY CHOOSE ONE FAVORITE.
Here's an example of how to vote:
#100 - The texture is overpowering and the image is oversharpened.
#092 - The image is very blurry and the coloring doesn't complement the picture.
FAVORITE
#207
And the form (just copy and paste what's in the box, replace the #00's with the correct numbers, and replace 'Reason' with the explanation for your vote, obviously.):
