Round #11 - Challenge #3 - Voting

[hermionesparkle.livejournal.com]

Skipping: double_dutchess, crazycordy, & dixon.

Eliminated due to no entry and no skips: jane948

Rules:
- Vote for 2 icons of the least quality. Reasons such as 'I don't like' or 'It's too plain' are not allowed. Actually think about why you are voting out the icon. If the icon is too plain, why is that bad thing? What could have been done to improve the icon?
- Also vote for 1 icon that you feel is the best quality. The reason for this one is optional but encouraged.
- Keep your icon identity hidden until after the results are posted. Do not vote for yourself or get anyone to vote for you.
- You do not have to be a participant to vote (the more the merrier!).
- Positive votes do not take away from the amount of negative votes. This will change in the event of a tie.
- One person will be eliminated as the result of the voting.
- The comments are screened.
- If you entered and do not vote then you will not be eligible for Community's Choice or Mod's Choice.
- Voting will be open until Monday at around 11 PM ET.




Examples:

Least favorite:
12. The texture really takes away from the focus of the icon and throws off the balance.
120. The image is very sharp in spots including Buffy's hair line & facial features. It could have looked better with either some contrast or using a blur tool.

Favorite:
04. Beautifully cropped.
166. The coloring really makes the icon stand out from the others.

Aaand - we're back in nitpicking land...

2 least quality icons:
# - reason: Even though I like the icon very much, the writing is awkwardly placed on Buffy's chin. It's also too big, and as a result of both the words below are cut.

#1 - reason: The idea behind the icon is great and the writing is well done; the aspect ratio is off, though, enough that it really throws me.

1 best quality icon
#7- reason (optional): the icon is well done, very balanced and yet atmospheric. I like the simplicity of the writing and the positioning serves as telling so much more than just the words, which is something I really like.

Just like last round - wonderful icons all around. Tough choice.

You forgot the number for your first icon. Please fix it! :)

Ooops...I can't edit my comment though, because you already replied to it. It's meant to be #5.
Sorry...
