Second try...

This will be my second batch of icons. I just spend all night trying to figure out which letters I should use so we can read them. I was going crazy at first and I wanted to punch the monitor. Finally it seems it worked out pretty good, not great because the icons are still basic but at least you can read what it says, or I hope so.

Sorry for being such a sucky commentor and not having left you one single note in all that time! =/

Anyway, shiny icons! I love #13/14 (which seem somewhat similar, am I correct?) so I'll take that one, but not now since I'm kind of... rushing xD Keep up the good job!

I'm so happy you liked them!! Thanks for letting me know what you think. ;)
The ones that look exactly the same it's because one is a .jpg and the other one is a .png file.
Don't worry about not commenting before, I'm not good at that either. I'm starting to do so now. :P

So pretty!

As for fonts, if you want a failsafe one to use, Copperplate always looks good and is easy to read. Dafont.com also has a lot of fun fonts.

Thanks again!
I downloaded some fonts from there yesterday actually, the issue is there are so many letters available it's really hard to know which one will look good on a 100x100 avatar. And I'm also trying to understand the difference between pixelated fonts and non-pixelated ones. I've been reading about it, but I'm still a little confused... @_@
Anyway, I will check with Copperplate! ;)

Copperplate should be on your computer already, it's a default font that most come with automatically.

I usually end up going through half a dozen fonts before settling on one that looks good (or I go back to Copperplate).

Yeah I think I've seen Copperplate before in my pc. I love handwritting letters but they don't look good on the avatars ;_; The ones I used on 1, 2, 4, 13, 14 and 16 might work out too. Can you read them properly?! I like the letters on 13, 14 and 16 :P I can't remember the name right now though... something with L...
