I wasn't sure whether to post this in

necroholic or here but this seems like more sensible place for it.

ICON TRUTH MEME

RULES:
1. Comment with your username, a few icons to see your work, and people will comment with what they feel about your icons.
2. You don't have to comment anonymously, but I would strongly suggest it.
3. TELL EVERYONE TO PARTICIPATE!
4. Please don't be rude when commenting, there is a difference between constructive and destructive criticism.
5. Even if you feel like you're not the best icon maker, please comment anyway, or comment to other people. This is supposed to help people grow, and see their strengths and weaknesses.

(If no one comments to this or anything, I will be so sad)

This was taken from an icon meme on lj.

Copy & paste this to promote this meme! Please?

Your icons (and layouts) are so vibrant in color! Even when it's bw, you manage to alter the levels so it still jumps out at you.

i am in love with your icons. textures, coloring, cropping, you've got it all down to a T. i just wish you made icons of things i'm into. i feel really weird maybe using icons that i think are gorgeous when i don't even know who is in them, let alone anything about that person/subject.

Haha, seems quite of a bit us wished others would icon things we're all into! Thank you!

I've been the same, about using icons of subjects you don't know/not into, especially since icons tend to "represent" you in different ways. But I feel that if it's gorgeous, there's always an exception! ;) Even if it happens to be a character/subject I hate! XD

I've loved your icons for years. I'm actually shocked you didn't have that many manga ones in this post, since I seem to think that's your strong point. I love the way you color and have often used you as inspiration to color myself (even though I can never get to the same level as yourself).

Your textures, effects, and text placement is also amazing. I don't think I've come across an icon of your's I didn't like.

I'm sure I've [secretly] surprised some people regarding my manga icons... I haven't really iconed manga images in a while. :D;; I actually felt that using pre-colored manga images, anime images, or just colored images in general was somewhat of a weak point for me so I was working on that bit for a while; granted, I've gotten a bit lazy as of late, so that's also why I haven't been shelling out the manga icons.

I'm very honored that you both love my icons and use my icons as inspiration! *u*♥ Thank you!

God, do I even have to say it? ♥ Your graphics were one of the first to inspire me to get into graphics myself. You have a way with color, a way with picking the best lyrics. I will always and forever be intranced by your work. ♥

Thank you, Simon-kun! I'm very honored that I was an inspiration to you! ;o; I didn't even realize~♥

I try hard to match lyrics to my subjects, so I am extremely honored that you've pointed it out! :D Thank you so much, bb~

I LOVE your icons. Especially the really colorful ones. You're probably one of the most talented iconists I know.
