I Make Icons!

[ase]

First haul from the icon project. Ten icons based on the works of Lois McMaster Bujold. The usual requests apply: please comment and credit; feedback/constructive criticism encouraged; an example of constructive criticism would be, "I can't read #6, try increasing the contrast." Some quotes have been tweaked for clarification; I'm aware of this. #9 is a LotR crossover, #10 includes mild profanity. If all that hasn't scared you off please stay for cookies and icons.

You're right about pixel fonts being inelegant. They work for some things (I'd use them for a Leo Graf quote in a heartbeat) but not others (see above).

I've seen people switch from sans serif to a script font to make a point. Color would be an interesting variation, too; it hasn't been done so much.

Blinkies are evil. Useful for flippant responses, though.
