My favourites out of the new bunch are Neohybrid_kai (very professional and love the nekomimi on the interest icon) and NoirKoneko (a similar glossy feel and like the scribble effect).

I really like Zac Corcoran's icons. I think they are simple without being too plain. Good job Zac. Cool

ANN's image viewer is pretty terrible. C'mon guys, it's not that hard to install lightbox.

As far as the designs go, Neohybrid_kai's is nice. kobsy's is good too, but the outer glow effect is too strong.

I agree with you. They are very simple, clear and intuitive. The graded color gives them a nice 3D effect that really makes them look like a button. I hope they go with this one or at least something like it.

I understand ANN isn't necessarily going to pick just one whole set and use the entire thing, as they stated something similar to partial usage in the rules of the contest, but seeing as I'm too lazy to pick and choose my favorite for each category, I think Kobsy's set is my favorite as a whole.

Is there any way to still see the first set? I missed that original post and can't find it anywhere.

Personally, I like Zac Corcoran's entries the best out of this new set.

I think it's a tossup between Neohybrid_kai and ArmchairTitan for me. Kai's set has a little more overall polish, but Titan has better iconography for "Views", "Reviews", and "Miscellaneous".

It's not the best thing in the world, I agree. Feels dated compared to the rest of the site.

Out of these, I really like Fyn's best. Kimyou Teki's are cute too.

From this set, I like Dessa's best, followed by ArmchairTitan's and then Zac Corcoran's. I wouldn't be disappointed by any of the three sets.

I've added links so people can navigate between sets 1 and 2.

Wow, thank you. With all of the awesome entries, I'd just about given up that anyone would like mine.

Your entry has been added.

Yours was the only one missing. For some reason it was listed after the one I disqualified for being later (although the time stamp shows that your entry was on time).
