I could see about three icons I would have voted off first. I mean, I KNOW my icon wasn't great when compared with a lot of the others, but shit. I would have at least voted 7 off first. Someone actually FAVOURITED that one. The red text stuck out like a sore thumb, and not in a good way. Just - ugh. I'm not confident about my chances at either community I'm in right now.
I see what you mean. Maybe you should try for a pick me up. I really like the concept. You submit what you think are the best icons, and people comment saying which are their favorite and why. Then you can enter the header image challenge, where they will display your icons on the header for a fill cycle :)
I like the concept, and would love to do a round at Ev_indulgence with a similar concept. I think it would be good for all icon makers :)
I swear, every single time, I see very few comments that are actually constructive, and they're usually mine. D: And with this one, they aren't even giving everyone their comments, so the person I voted against won't see the suggestions I made. I don't think I'll be entering that community again, and I definitely won't bother being constructive if my comments won't even be seen by the person.
Hell, I may not even vote there anymore.

p.s. Heh, I don't even mean for the LIMS challenges, I mean the 30StM fandom in general. All the same people always win every challenge, the same people always get mods choice, etc. and so forth. It's ridiculous, because 9 times out of ten, I hate all the icons, and the ones I find most creative are the ones that don't place or get voted out (depending on whether it's regular challenges or LIMS).

it's just the way lims is...I don't see any maker getting through there with no negative votes... and usually votes aren't really constructive, lol
:P I hate having to vote on lims, it makes me feel like such a bitch to say bad things about other people's icons
