I really like The OC & Veronica Mars icons. o.O I don't like the Supernatural one, it seems like a lot of exclusion or too pale-y dark? But I do like the 5th one though.

You should submit them to CB instead of posting them on showcase booth unless you want C&C about it.

Can I have permission to add some effects on one icon? =D

I have to agree with sang. Alot of these look.. pale =/ I cant put my finger on it, but it may be the exclusion and coloring.

I suggest you try using some different methods of icon-ing. Such as using colors, softlight layers, overlay, multiply, colorburn, and using the curves, or duplicating the orginal base, and setting it to screen to make the icon much brighter.

you may add effects. they are dark, I agree there. I was afraid to brighten them too much because I'm on my friends computer and her monitor is darker than mine.


thank you for the suggestions

Okay. I tried using one of your images, but they are already icon-nized it looked odd trying to add some other effects.

This is what I made in about one minute.


See how there is alot of contrast, and alot of sharpness. Alot of details are pretty key in what you want accomplished.

I recommend you stop colorizing the whole icons, (unless it just looks right) thumbsup.gif and use textures, layer styles, and selective color.
