Icon Discussion #2

How This All Works...

I will post a new icon on Friday night/Saturday for these discussions. Each icon will be left up in the discussion thread for about a week, so you all can freely talk about whatever you want (that pertains to the icon).



Rules

01. Anyone is allowed to post in this thread, as long as it is to discuss said icon.
02. When making your comments, try to have both good and bad aspects of the icon.
03. Do not bash, or make fun of another icon.
04. Keep it kid-friendly. No swear words.
05. Respect other people's opinions. You are free to disagree, but you may not bash someone else's opinion.
06. Feel free to be bluntly honest. This thread isn't here to hurt feelings, but it is to discuss icons, whether you think that they are good or bad.
07. Have a fun time critiquing.



When making your post, I would like you to have at least table filled out. I also have the coding at the end, so you can just copy and paste it into your post:
When filling in your scores, please make them on a scale of 1 - 10, 10 being the best (highest), and 1 being the worst (lowest).

Please only fill out the score box if it is applicable; meaning if there is not text on the icon, then leave that box blank.
[ text consists of placement, coloring, font, etc. TINY TEXT DOES NOT COUNT AS TEXT! ]

Overall, I really like the texture and text the best. The coloring is a little too purple for my taste, and the cropping is a tad boring. The texture is well chosen, though, and the text is placed very well.

I like the color combination, especially since it's an interesting deviation from the original colors. I'm not sure how well it fits with the 'destruction' text theme, though. But overall I like this icon; it has a nice font and cropping, and the textures make the icon look different/interesting without overpowering the subject focus.

It is the earthbending woman from the story in season 2 ep Cave of Two Lovers.

I do love this icon, very much so...Well I like it a lot better than 1st one. The coloring on this is okay, though the purple against the blue is something that feels a little funny but in general I like it a lot. I love the film scroll sorta thing with it and the textures with it. All in all, my inner Avatard squeals a good deal for this one.
