ICON CHALLENGE: ICONS10IN20, ROUND 13



My first participation in
icons10in20 and I'm so excited to be part of this!
I originally wanted to wait until 2020 since I'm pretty shy about these sort of things, and I wanted to see how the regulars/you guys did it but then I saw one of the themes - Sweater Weather - and I had to, you guys. I had to.
I hope you guys like these icons! I did my best to ensure the .GIF icons could be used here on Dreamwidth. (Also: I really hope the next big code push is allowing more than just 60 KB for .GIF icons, oh my gooosh.)

I really like the ideas in The End and the sweater one!Really great use of gifs!Oh yes,60kb would be so great for gif icons! Draw inspiration turned out really pretty and I like how you did text on face!

And ahhh - I'm glad you like The End and Sweater Weather! The entire bottom row + Negative space + Simple and Text on Face are the icons I was proudest to make the last week or so. Despite Photoshop trying to take me work with it every time it crashed, I am so happy with the results!

And I'm super happy to hear you like the cropping! Because, I swear to gosh, my time when doing the icons was basically this:
[nudges a screencap across five pixels] .... [crtl + z to return it to its original place] BETTER.
...
[nudges a screencap across six pixels]

I love your set! The animated ones are all great! (60kb is not much, oi, but at least more than the 40 they still have on lj! :) ) I love the interpretation of text-on-face and borders! :D Angled has a great mood! And the close crop is awesome.

And oh my gosh LJ only had 40KB?? That really makes me appreciate the animated icons I got to do more than ever, since I am proud of the ones that managed to get through. I'm a little sad I couldn't get to animate Angled as I hoped to, so all the even number icons were animated, haha, so it's great to hear you liked that as well. :D

Gorgeous icons. I especially love the crop on “draw inspiration” and all the gif icons look amazing. Great job! ♥

Thank you for the compliments! I'm so proud of how Draw Inspiration turned out and, despite my struggles, I am pleased with what I could turn out for the .GIF icons. I'm hoping to do more like them in the future when I join more rounds/battles!
