Default Award Icons v2 (W.I.P)

These are a set of awards (version 2) with some graphical tweaks and minor re-colouring aswell as different Icons which differ from their v1 counterparts. I guess I'm posting them as a W.I.P because I thought it would be beneficial to get some suggestions, comments & a little critism before I wrap them up and submit them to the database.

Being a W.I.P I only have 8 designed so far but hopefully I should have 18 before the weekend. I'm aiming for 18 images though realistically it will probably be 12.

I'd appreciate any feedback on them. ;)

These are lovely Shelley. Very nice indeed.
My only suggestion is the awards on black would be better with a white text.. or at least a very light shade of the same color as the award.

Otherwise... nice job!

Nice work, once again

You could try to add a very slim white border to the text of the black background ones, so it brings out the text better

Ah yes, what I will most probably do is add an outer glow so the text looks smoother. I'll certainly try the stroke/border effect first though because of the curved edging in the font it may look jaggy.

Thanks for the suggestion senna. (shelley cannot find a thumbsup) ;)

excellent work m8, as always

1 thing though, as was suggested already, on the black background it's prefered indeed to have some brighter colors, as it's really hard to read those texts...

PSDs won't be available has I won't let anyone modify my designs. There are occaisons when I'll release the PSD to a set but this set the PSD won't be made available.

I haven't finished them yet though you can pm me the translations via my forum and once they are complete I'll make the modifications.

I'll possibly be adding an outer glow to the text or something, haven't figured what I'll do yet though I'll figure something out. ;)

Thanks. I'm still working with them though it's highly unlikely they will be finished tonight. I could release them as an 8 pack set though I know I'll get requests for other titles so I'll hold off on them untill I get atleast 12.

If there's any titles that anyone thinks should be included let me know so I have plenty of time to design the icon to compliment the award.

Just an update that the variants (awards) initially posted won't be released with a dark background colour matte. I couldn't get them complimenting a dark background so kinda gave up and then started on some that would compliment a dark background. ;)

Thoughts?
