I usually like icons that are a bit flashier, but they all look pretty nice. I like #12 the best.

Hm. Honestly, not your best batch. I think that your image selection and how you've cropped is excellent. However, it leaves me wanting something a bit more in the way of subtle coloring or something to that effect. Also, the text is throwing me off more often than not - beit it the color of the font or the font itself. This is particularly the case with "Downer Dan." I do like #25 though, for some reason. His expression is adorable.

Oh I totally understand. I can't figure out text with icons at all.

See, I just gave up on text entirely (well, for the most part). I let go of so many different things I was in the middle of working on because of text related stress. haha

Yeah I feel like you could have done a bit more to these but they're all really nice. 3, 4, and 25 for sure <3

most of the fonts are just.. meh. font color choices are usually not that great too. the cropping is not bad for most of the icons. my favourite crop would be 25.

text really isn't great but the cropping looks good. I think they could use a little more 'oomph', nawmean?
