01.
- nice juxtaposition of the two fonts/font colors
- great harmony of the two fonts.
- The colouring and meaning of the text contrast well
- Good font choice, the text is very easy to read and the background, while being patterned, manages to be complementary rather complicatory.
03.
- The image is complimentary to the text
- Interesting choice of words and good compromise between having an image but not letting it overpower the text of the icon which is the main focus.
- This is the first one that drew my attention. I like how the newspaper blends perfectly with the rest of the background. Text is well done as well.
04.
- The coloring and texture really fit the text; the text stand out nicely, but not obtrusively.
- I don't know what it is about this one. I honestly don't. But it grabbed my attention and won't let go. I can't stop looking at it.
05.
- the fonts are pleasing and the separation of the word "love" works well.
- Nice contrast between dark background and simple, light text. Particularly good choice of font for 'love' - the handwritten cursive is very romantic.
06.
- The angle of the text gives the icon an unique feeling that makes it stand out.
- beautiful, dramatic colour, and an interesting use of texture and diagonally placed text to illustrate the idea 'cracking'. The 'C' could perhaps be a little clearer.
- the text and the background look like they're cracking so it matches the quote.
07.
- The text and the texture constrast well
08.
- good use of a highlighting color on the text
- very cute and simple. the yellow emphasis is perfect.
- lovely, simple design with clear text and perfect use of colour to highlight the message.
09.
- the quote is about beauty and the background is beautiful to match, and the colors go really well together.
11.
- dramatic but simple image, interesting combination of fonts.
(- The location of the text makes the icon too top heavy.)
12.
- the font seems an appropriate choice for the words
- it's the most unique of the bunch and the text is really funky.
(- The color of the "hammer" and "metal" text is too bright compared to the overall dark coloring of the icon. The color of the "strikes the" text is a good balanced color, though.)
13.
- The grayscale coloring, and the way the text blends into the background, makes the icon feel balanced and fluid.
- Simple, slightly funky, easy to read. Great work.
Please let me know if you discover any mistakes^^
Also, I found the *perfect* solution for last night's question... I just put all the links in the sidebar XD
I'll still keep them in most of the reminders, but in case you're looking for something and I forgot, just check there ;)
