TLIMS challenge 7

03/20/2010


TLIMS


Well I made it into the final challenge of TLIMS once again! YAY! I was really worried this time... I made like a billion icons until I decided on what I entered. lol And even then I wasn't at all sure of it. Here it is:



+2/-2= 0

For

The crop and diagonal placement of the image gives this icon a lot of energy, and I love the splash of colours i

I love how this icon includes so many diverse colours yet still manages to make them work in the small space. The splash of red light on the hair compliments the blue and yellow brushes behind the text. The text is large enough to be noticed but not too large and overpowering. The striped texture adds extra depth to the icon. The crop is also interesting; I like how the model's face is off to the side and in the corner rather than front-row-centre

Against

This was a very hard round to choose for me. But personally, I just really don't like the crop on this. Her hair seems to be the focal point of the icon, and the red is just a bit too jarring for me.

I do like this icon, but when it's compared to the other three, it's lacking. Perhaps if Alexis' face was larger in the icon, it would be a little more eye-popping.

My comments

I guess this one of those icons that you either liked or disliked! lol I loved the picture and her hair in the picture, so I actually wanted to include her hair in the icon because I thought it was a significant part of the picture. But I can understand how someone could not like that.

Below are some of the other crappy icons I made before deciding on this one. lol (Some are unfinished, and some were never going to be submitted anyway.)

I really rather LOVE #7. Biased cause I loved that picture haha. Also, I think 9 captures the challenge really well.

And while it sucks being voted against, I think what everyone had to remember the last few challenges is that they were allllll beautiful and it was SO difficult for people to vote against you guys, but since they HAD to, they had to try and come up with SOME constructive criticism. xD haha. I'm glad I'm not a voter

out of the extra ones, i think the third is my favorite then the 10th one.

Just out of curiosity, do you have like icon brushes and things like that to make the adorable designs in the icons, or do you do it all freehand?

Oh really? Maybe my sub-conscious can spot the hand-made stuff?
Doubtful, but I can pretend I'm that awesome.

I love them though

I'm with Jessa.. SO GLAD that I don't have to vote at TLIMS, because I don't think that I ever COULD! I really loved the one that you came up with, but I still think 8 is my favorite and I don't know why! And then 10. yes.

Wow, you made heaps of awesome ones!! I really like the first two, and #10. I love the inclusion of red and green in #9 too.

And just so you know, yours was mah faaavourite. =) Mine's the longer comment (I tend to write novels when I vote haha xD). I agree that the hair was a significant part of the picture, and I'm glad you included it. =D

6 and 7 are my fav's, because I liked that image a lot. I did love the texture of the icon you submitted though, it was very original, and a great icon.

Hec, all of these are amazing. I love them all
