The reason I feel this way is probably that I make crap icons but no one's told me yet...

I was reading some of the comments on someone's journal and thinking about quality icon standards.

Do I have standards for good icons?

Yeah. I think so. Well, I have.... one.


Dear Livejournal friends & strangers,

May I present:

RASHAKA'S EXTREMELY IMPORTANT VITAL BOTTOM LINE LIST OF GOOD ICON STANDARDS

1. If you use text, make sure it's bright enough, clear enough, and animated slowly enough for me to read it. People who do dark red on black are sadists and I am secretly planning your death.


That is all. Thank you for your time.

-Rashaka



Because honestly; everything else is taste, taste, taste. Beyond that one standard, I really have no opinion about the matter at all. But I celebrate people who have many standards. Go you. You are much cooler than me. So go, go make me beautiful icons! :)
