X: One Hundred and Six Icons

Jul 18, 2008 23:41

I tried out some advices from the icon truth meme and experimented a bit with my icons this time (such as reducing unnecessary muted colours, using more light textures, etc). I apologize that I didn't get to reply to everyone as it was during my exams, but a huge thank you to all of you who commented ♥ All your suggestions were really really ( Read more... )

So, so, so pretty. Your icons just keep getting better and better. I love the lighting effects on the Tsubasa icons.

Snagging a ton! :D

T-thank you! I'm glad that the lighting turns out well because I wasn't too confident doing it |DDD;

You're welcome! I think you did a really good job applying what people said in the anon meme and going outside your comfort level. Sometimes experimenting can really pay off.

I think they look really nice. I love your icons with the muted colors, but you do a pretty good job with brighter icons, too. My only suggestion would be to not make your icons too bright or add too many light textures, because then you run the risk of making your icon blinding and/or too busy to see what's really going on.

I look forward to seeing your next icon post, too! They really are lovely! ♥

Some people also gave me suggestions that I have yet to try out, but they require more skills that I have right now so I guess I will take it slowly. I am seriously loving that meme ♥

I understand what you mean with the icon looking too busy. The lights are pretty, but sometimes it ruins the purpose of the icon when you can't see what's really in there. (I guess tsubasa #10 and #11 are on the borderline...)

And just so you know, you are making me blush like crazy slkdfjs ♥
