Ok so when I look at icons and stuff I can depict what's grunge..or glamour.. or vintage...or punk.. yada yada yada!
 But I have these icons that I have found and was wondering if there was a certain "name" for them? Also hope this topic fits into this area, if not feel free to move it please!  Here are some example of what I am talking about:        If anyone does know what I'm taking about, do you have any sites related to this "design' ? Please and thank you! |

Actually, okay, lemme get my head on straight, those are vector stylized

Popart = amazing.
Art by Andy Warhol and Roy Lichnestein are two popular artists. Some googling will do it! Oh and I didn't make those icons, but borders would make them look nicer and stand out more, eh? Good idea!!

Emo is dark and scary :] boho is short for bohemian. Its he modern stuff thats inspired by bohemian styles. All the long loose skirts and the waist ties, with the tank tops...all boho. Look it up, I can't make much sense of it. Lol and by poptart you mean pop art and thats the style you see in a lot of retro sixties art, like the Marilyn Moroe Pictures where there like 50 of her repeated over and over again and only her hair lips and eyes are colored, its outlined in black, and the colors are really bright. If you've seen zoolander on dvd, its the style they use in the dvd menu. |
