1 and 5 for the same reasons as before.

#4 - The first icon doesn't have much going on with it. The cropping is great, but I feel its let down because its too simple, like it needed something more? The second icon looks all pixalated, and the colouring is way too dull for my liking. He looks too detached from the background. The third icon, the texture over the desaturated image kind of freaked me out, and I'm not a fan of the text used, nor its positioning.

#6 - The first icon, the images don't mesh well together at all. Also, a black background deserves a black strip down the middle,not a white, because that too detracts from the avatar. I also don't feel the text is appropriate for the images. The second icon, I'm just not a fan of the polaroid brush. It makes things all together too choppy. Also, the font used, for me, is offputting. The colouring is really nice though. The third icon, I can look at, but it just doesn't work. Its like, the cropping was trying, but didn't quite get there. I think that has something to do with the gradient, and the contrast of the icon though.

Set 7 - The first icon, I like the cropping, and the colouring, but it feels kinda bland, like the contrast could have been uped a bit for it to be a bit more striking. The second one, again, I like the cropping, but I'm not really a fan of the colouring or the placement of the text, as I feel they both let the icon down. The third icon, the crop is AMAZING, and the colouring, although it lacks in contrast, that one works for me... but again, I'm not a fan of the text... or how little it contrasts with the picture, I feel it could be darker.

Guh, this one is hard to do!

Set 5 - The first icon feels so empty. The second two have all these added bits, but the first feels as though they've simply fixed up the colouring with some layers and then slapped on some text. The second one, I love the layout, but he looks a tad pink, around the shoulders. The third, again, is amazing, with the layout and stuff, but maybe she could have been made bigger, because the added effects seem to overwhelm the picture and detract from the actual image?

#7-Same reasons as before

#12-Firstly, I love the first icon, the colouring is amazing and is so vibrant. But the second one, the blue/red texture/layer thingy lets it down, if it didn't have that on it would be great. Same with the third, it is a let down for the icon.

I love sets #1 and #3 though.

No 1. For the reasons I said last time, green glow around the text doesn’t suit the avs and the first one is too yellow.

No 5. The last two avs are great but the first one looks rushed and amateurish and doesn’t go with the other two at all, thus ruining the set. The colouring is off and the red heart doesn’t suit the pic. The placement of the text is also not very original.

Have they been renumbered or are all the original entries still in the first posts.

[MarMar]

All original entries, except the ones that have been eliminated should be in the first post.

#1- On all the icons, I find that the green brushes don't go. On the first icon, I find the colouring a little too orange. I'm not really a fan of the colouring on the second, it's a little too pea green. The third is great! Although it could do with more contrast.

#5- The first icon is really the let down. It seems too oversharpened, and the text doesn't really go. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't see much happening against the original image. I really heart the second icon, nothing I can see that needs to be improved. I think the image in the third icon is a little too low in contrast, and maybe has been cropped too far, so you can't see their faces features well. Other than that, I can't pick up anything really.
