year-end icon progression meme

[naushika]

I had a hard drive crash & I lost all my files. :( Hopefully only temporarily. I will be attempting to retrieve everything on the destroyed hard drive. But in the meantime, I don't even have an editing program installed on my computer, let alone have any of my precious, precious textures sob. So what do I do when I can't icon? I do an icon meme, of

I loved reading this, I always enjoy progress memes because they show how any kind of amazing progress is possible and whoa the first few years here don't even look like they were made by the same person than the last few years (which are AWESOME)!! :O

I love your muted style (still, trying bright colors too next years sounds really promising, based on the sample that was the aaaawesome pop art set!) and completely agree about the creativity and compositions which you've really mastered this year :>

Also HOW HAVE I MISSED THAT MASTER ICON?? Definitely downloading it now and will credit when used (unless it was like someone's unshareable request or something?)

Such a great iconing year for you and can't wait to see your 2013 stuff! ^^

Oooh same, I looooove looking at other people's progress memes! Seeing how people grow and change is so interesting. And I totally agree, my old icons are soooo different to how I make them now.

Thank you so much for the kind comments. I think part of the reason I've felt so bold this year is I've had some really great encouragement and comments from others in the community, like yourself!

Ooh, that Master icon was one of my faves I did this year. I just had to put it in here. It was from an icon battle.. I thiiiiiiink an icon_talk battle. I can't rightly remember, lol. But it's totally snaggable! :D
