This is so hard, I really love them all :|

Voting Off: WORST (-2 points): #001 - Leighton's skin tones are a bit orange and too saturated.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #003 - The image could be a bit sharper, particularly around the face.

Favorites: FAVORITE (+2 points): #006 - Lovely coloring and choice of image.
SECOND FAVORITE (+1 points): #005 - Great crop of Blake & lovely coloring.

Voting Off: WORST (-2 points): #03 - The coloring in the icon is overall just too yellow, and her skin seems to fade into the background and only her eyes and lips stand out. SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #02 - The texture across really takes away from the icon and there is just nothing that makes it stand out. Favorites: FAVORITE (+2 points): #06 - The coloring is so beautiful and its feels very romantic and dreamy. I am not even the biggest fan of her but I would be tempted to snag the icon just because of how beautiful it is. SECOND FAVORITE (+1 points): #05 - I think the background texture chosen is perfect for this pic, and the colors compliment each other well.

these were all awesome. *hugs*

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #04 - It's a cool icon, the edges of the cutout are just a bit too sharp. In terms of making the icon a bit more multidimensional, you could also add some darker and lighter tones to the icon to make it really pop.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #03 - This was really hard. This particular icon isn't over sharpened which is a good thing, but the edges to the right of the subject's face blend with the background a bit which can come off as distracting. Also, her nose is a little difficult to see. A light layer on color burn could help a lot. :)

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #05 - Cute and smooth cut-out. :)
SECOND FAVORITE (+1 points): #02 - I like the random insert of color into the picture. It's a bit over sharpened, but not enough to take away from the quality of the icon.

Great job everyone, they are all gorgeous!
Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #02 - The icon looks too sharpened around the face and the color stripes take away the focus from the face. The coloring is great though.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #04 - Too sharpened around the eyes and nose + the borders from the cut. Still the coloring is great and the background is lovely :D

Favorites:
FAVORITE (+2 points): #06 - Gorgeous coloring and use of texture, the icon is so smooth and pretty!
SECOND FAVORITE (+1 points): #01 - Very bright and smooth.

Please take the time to consider a few things when voting:
---> Aim for votes to be 1 - 2 complete sentences
---> If you can expand, do!
---> WHY & WHERE - why is it a bad thing, where is it happening?
---> If you're feeling helpful you can also offer a HOW it could be improved.

i.e. If the icon is too dark, explain why that is a negative thing (subject blends into the background, loss of definition etc). Oversharpened? Tell me where!

LMAO OK Ms. Mod.

Voting Off:
WORST (-2 points): #04 - The overall look of the icon seems a bit plain. I think a different background would make it better. Also, the picture seems a overshapened.
SECOND-WORST (-1 points): #01 - The coloring is too bright, I would have preferred something softer, less saturated.
