For
♥ this icon actually caught my eye right off the bat. I love the spots of yellow, as they add light to the icon. The pink balances out the yellow; the only suggestion I'd make is to remove some of the pink off the model's face, or add a different, natural, colour over her face, to prevent the pink from becoming too much. The text is cute and suits the mood of the icon.
♥ Very creative. I love the coloring. It's also not overpowered by textures or text.. It's wonderful

Against
♥ It's nice to see that they really used the colors in it, but they should have toned it done slightly. It overpowers the icon and draws attention away from the model and word.
♥ The colors are too bright and obscure the face of the girl in the icon. If the opacity was lowered even slightly it could make this better, that way the colors would still be obvious but not overpowering.
♥ The textures used are too much. Too pink and it doesn't seem to work together. Perhaps if they colour effect had only been done on the background, or on a lower opacity it would look better. And maybe if the text was less centered.
♥ I like the crop of this icon and the text does fit well but I feel the pink hue is off-putting and somehow cheapens the icon.
♥ Seems like the person didn't know how to use the three colors, so they just put it every where. Very busy and just not neat


Things I learned from these comments


People don't like too much pink in an icon, and think I have a shitty editing eye because I've progressively gotten more negative comments.


this was the only texture I used. over the gradient.

The colors, as the challenge required, were turned into a gradient.

The last comment really bothers me. I knew I wanted all three colors to be apparent, in a gradient. That's all. I didn't think my icon was the best work I've ever done, but I didn't think it was that terrible either.

note: no need to comment. It's nice knowing if people like your stuff though ;-)

* don't forget to turn off auto paragraphs and smileys :)

i really hate that part of lims. people voting have no freaking idea. the other competitors usually do, but some comments are just shit.

i like it, it's simple. i like the glowy feel of the text. and the yellow goes well with the pink.

I really did like your icon, but my comment was the second against. The gradient idea is really good actually. But the pink was just a bit too much, was all I thought. The crop was good, the text was fitting and your gradient orbs are a really creative idea. Don't get discouraged!

I'm with Ev. So many of the votes are quite...uneducated (and I use the term loosly because I am uneducated in terms of photoshop!). This was a very challenging round I think. Mind you, I've thought that about all of them now but it's good, we're being stretched because I don't know about you but when I'm making a batch of icons I always try the same techniques on them and if they don't work I just play about till I like it not really taking any notice of what I'm doing! As for your icon....I like it. It's maybe a bit pink but it's different. and I love the texture.

I found it very difficult to vote this round, because all the icons were really good! I liked your icon

I voted for yours. =) I disagree with the last comment. I don't think it's 'too busy' or 'not neat' at all. It is simple and clean and cute. I agree with the consensus that there's a little too much pink but not enough to have made me not choose yours as a fave. =)

I honestly LOVED your icon.. I didn't expect it to get as many negative votes as it did. You took a risk and made it B-R-I-G-H-T.. and I do so LOVE how it turned out.

You know, I think I've voted for almost every single one of your icons in ~themed LIMS. xD
