You have no idea how many times that's happened to me. xD I never learned my lesson, it happened to me too this round.

It's not a no-fill font, it's the way I set the blend mode.
I did have it filled, but it looked crappy. D:

I have experimented before, but it just leaves a bunch of empty space I can't seem to fill. XP

Thanks for all the ratings, guys.

Uh, your first two ratings are the same as WIS', Adex. o.O

.

Yea I used his form, changed it, and when I tried posting it, it got all fjfa;dka;dka'fdka'd. :S

neopet: what do you mean by "you centered too much on the source image"?

Geez. I'm seeing a bit of harshness all around this round. o_O

Round 2 Assignment:

LJ Icon:
- Create an LJ Icon
- The icon's dimensions has to be exactly 100x100
- The icons must contain some kind of text
- Your icon cannot contain any portrayal of a person/people in them. This includes photographs, anime/manga, 3-D/CG, etc. If you are unsure, please check the images you wish to use with me.
- You may use images with a person/people in it, as long as the part of the image you choose to use is not part of the person itself.
- Be creative!

If you are unfamiliar with LJ Icons, here are a few examples:





Maximum of 3 people may be eliminated this round.

All icons are due by March 5th.

Wow, tied for the highest score! I don't think that's ever happened to me. Sorry to see Dyl, Penguin, and whattisthis go though. T__T

And thank you judges for all your observations, I'll try to keep them in mind for the following rounds. I didn't realize there was so much empty space though. o.o;; I generally try to offset empty space with large text, but looking at it again I see I could have cut a good 50 pixels out of there without changing it too much. And personally I hate the text. I actually hate the text on about 99% of sets that I make. xD

ANYWAY. Thanks.

WIS: can we use humanoid images? such as robots or other?

also, what about human manequinns?

Thanks for all the comments judges, I'll try and do better this round =)

OOH fun challenge
*will edit entry in later*

I came in dead last place. Wow. Thanks for the scores though.

Not to complain or anything, well, uh, to complain, I can't say I feel every rating awarded by the judges was exactly fair, considering they should be analysing the graphic presented to them, as opposed to a previous one (which I would like to say, I felt was cramped and am happy I changed it). I can't say I exactly feel large text and a border deserve a 6.25. I understand it is a judge's choice to what grade they give each person, but do however feel they should keep them within some bounds. Also, I always feel it is nice to note both positives and negatives. I'm not speaking only on behalf of only my own graphic, too.

I accept criticisms, however, I do feel some were unnecessarily harsh. I will try to build on the helpful comments that the judges have given, too, thank you. Personally, I didn't really like the font either but couldn't find one I was pleased with.

Thanks judges for all the critiques (I like 'em harsh)!!

Definitely going to work a bit this round.

Hmm, I'm going to say no and draw the line at anything that resembles, or is supposed to resemble a human. Sorry.

Clothes, by themselves and NOT on a mannequin, are fine though.
