+ 26: Great coloring and contrast. It looks almost 3D. Love the orange.
+ 26: Great negative space effect. And the coloring is also nice.
+ 26: Beautiful crop and coloring; looks like a formal portrait painting. Nice choices on positive vs. negative space; great balance and impact here.
+ 26: Way to avoid the "floating head" syndrome with this cap! This icon keeps more of Teal'c's profile than just his face - which is an important part of the cap. (Also, the coloring is fabulous.)

"26: Amazing colouring an use of negative space :)"
"26: Nice simple composition. The gentle orange-brown swirl compliments Teal’c nicely, drawing our focus to him."

You're welcome! Beautiful icon!

+ 19: love the blend here, and the lighting and texture effects work really well with the crop
+ 19: I literally rocked back in my chair and said out loud, "That's gorgeous." It's perfectly composed, and I love the warm golden coloring.

"19: I love the idea of this icon. :D"
"19: Lovely vibrant colours, with that smokey texture overlay. Nice contrast. And great crop. It really focuses on Teal’c and Sam’s expressions."

- 18: (There's not enough contrast for black and white. The crop could have been lined up better, closer to the brow and less of a cut across the ear. The font is too blatant and uncreative.)
- 18: The icon looks like it's just been cropped and put into black and white. The text choise and font are dull and the placement isn't creative at all.

"18: This is one of the best black and white icons I've ever seen. I also love the crop."
"18: Interesting crop - plenty of lovely jaw line. This is a well-balanced icon, even though the subject is quite prominent."
"18: if only I had 3 MF votes"
