Time to look back on 2022 with a focus on iconmaking, to draw some conclusions and get some feedback! \o/
1) ICON PROGRESSION
Tell us what icons you made last year, select the best/the most extraordinary/the most representative, and tell us about them.
Tell us about your progress, your fandoms, your ideas and techniques. What changed over the course of the year?
If you want, you can make resolutions about your iconmaking: what you would like to do this year, techniques you want to try, goals you want to achieve - for resolutions, also see bestof_icons below.
There are quite a few progression posts from the previous years by now, in which you can look for ideas how to go about it:

Here are some more examples of what they might look like:

* You can post your progression/resolution posts as new posts directly to this comm
* If you post(ed) a progression post to your journal, you can make a new post here and link to your journal
* If you have more than 5 icons in your post, put them under a cut
* Note: you must be a member of this community to be able to post
Deadline: any time you want! These things take time. Post them to the community any time you like!

There are three activities currently in progress:
Remakes
Resolutions
Nominations
The more the merrier!
3) ICON FEEDBACK/CONCRIT
When this comm was new, there was a concrit/feedback thread on every post, but it wasn't used by many people, so I stopped making them. In case you do miss getting feedback on your icons, there's a concrit/feedback thread in this post again!
Have fun, and be nice!
