Oh, I just want to say that it was really cool to read this and see how much you improved in these past few years!

Thanks so much! I always love seeing these posts with other people, so I enjoyed making my own. :)

This is a great thing to do!

You've certainly come a long way.

But what you refer to as "all over the place" for me shows how creative and versatile you are! Your icons are stunning!

It was a lot of fun picking icons, actually.

Thank you, that's so nice of you to say. :)

Wow, Meg, thanks so much for this insightful comment, it really means a lot. :)

I think that red, yellow and blue are definitely 'me'. Other people work really well with vibrant pinks and purples and I just always seem to want to do primary colours.

3. I think that's an excellent point I never would've come up with myself, but you are so right. I like to think I've developed a sense of balance in my icons and that's probably the biggest achievement over the years.

Thanks so much again for this comment, it was the best thing to wake up to!

I love this sort of post! It was interesting seeing your progression especially (as you point out) you can see aspects of your style today in your early icons. Thanks for putting this together!

Me too, I vote everyone do one! *nudges*

[ohgollygeedamn]

You have inspired me and I am working on a post now! :D
