Your coloring has gotten so much better. I don't think anyone would call your icons "too simple" anymore. :)

Raves Ahhh, the cropping. Ahhh the difference/light layers. Excellent job, hun! :D And #3, you know how much I love that icon. You're improving in the texture department! ♥

Rants meron ba? For some reason, #2 didn't catch my eye the way the other icons did. :| Perhaps it's the cropping? Idk.

YAY!! i'm so glad to hear that. i've been trying to develop different styles~ i need to practice more, though. i still have a lot to work on! *fist pump* and yeah, i guess it's the cropping. and that it's dark, maybe, since you're more fond of light coloring. :D

Hey, I went through that really really dark/contrasted stage too. :D

I HAD to reply D:

Cropping-qwiu4io14jongto crap,it's just lovely,I especially love 4 and 5 *w*,and 8 is amazing.♥ I also love what you did with ten,the icon in an icon effect,I always love that *w*

Coloring-omo...I've been really watching your community,I swear,but X3;; I really should comment!Anywho,to the coloring,I -really,really- love your style,because,it still has that warm feeling to it,but at the same time,it's very light,which happens to be my favorite type of coloring I can never get D: (wtf?)

Texture Use-The texture use at 3 is amazing OwO,it goes so well with the coloring of the person in it-and for the Onew icon,I can't fold but find that little border at the bottom really,really cute and a simple yet nice touch ♥

CONCLUSION: You're awesome 8D (eh...I'm weird like this on a daily basis.)

Even before, I still loved your icons since your cropping was drop dead gorgeous. Now that you've started using textures, your icons are way beyond drop-dead gorgeous. They're TO DIE FOR GORGEOUS.

I can't believe how outstanding your icons are. They way you position the textures blend so well into the icon. The coloring sometimes seems a bit dark for me but that's probably just my monitor. All in all, I look forward to seeing more of your icons! :D/ ♥
