alright, look at me! Two months in a row entering something graphical *hides* And just a question for you icon savvy people. What type of fonts do you use for icons, because most of my fonts just don't look good at the smaller pixel sizes. Thanks!

Hmmm for pixel fonts I use any font from here, they all look good in smaller sizes. For the rest of the fonts... I tend to go crazy when I use them, never use the same one. But if you're using anti-alias they shouldn't not look good ^_^

I tend to like using Arial or Arial Bold for my small fonts - usually set to size 3-5. Size 3 or 4 is generally for when I put two or three spaces between each letter like this. And for really small font that's impossible to read but still looks kinda neat (like this) I use size 1. XD I use a lot of other random fonts too for larger text like this, but it's mostly a matter of trial and error to see what looks good. But yeah, anti-alias is also helpful. :3

I've always wondered who came up with the idea of 'hey, let's make text really freaking small so it's like this line of dots that look like they should be words'. All the same, I love your icons.

I'm sort of braindead at the moment, and I can't think of anything. This is if animated ones are allowed. This didn't turn out the way I wanted, so, if we're allowed to remake it, I might remake it if I think of something better before it's time to choose... I need to pick a background color other than the red. (The "Marker coloring over the avatar" idea wasn't so good anyway, so I'll probably use the beige or the pink) It'll look better, and do a better job of emphasizing the red. I just don't feel like it right now, though... But, I saved it as a PSD.
