Shoot me for making a poll thread in G&P
In terms of both of what you like to look at and what you like to make, what is your favourite medium between icons, tags or large pieces?

Personally, I feel most accomplished when I make a decent large piece. Getting concept across in the largest size possible is something I always try to do. I feel that tags are possibly my least favourite things to do amongst the three, but there's a huge sense of accomplishment when I make a decent tag because I struggle with them so deeply. Icons are something I do when I have the motivation, I find them pretty easy since I tend to stick to my own style (depending on stock), and they're something I've moved on from, but really want to get back into. I always feel great when I make some good icons and people use them, since people are more inclined to use a set of your icons than large pieces, since I don't make a whole lot of tags.

I like making wallpapers (large pieces). I also make tags and icons from time to time, (I'm still working on making a perfect tag), but I love it when I make a pretty and decent wallpaper, like the galaxy one I made in my gallery and & my blog.
Let somebody else try first.

I almost made this thread the other day! :D

I always say I'm going to practise my icons or my LPs more, and I always end up coming back to tags. I do feel more accomplished when I complete an LP, just because it is a lot more work and often are more widely appreciated and more stunning to look at than tags, but yeah, I just don't do them often...

Previously it was just tags and Icons, but then I lost the will and inspiration to do any more tags.
I don't really think I've done a large piece in a while but I do remember the great accomplished feeling when I did finish it. When I do any gfx (which has started to become rare now)I usually work on icons.
I'm not sure why but I like making icons over tags these days.

I've never done a large piece before :/
but I prefer to make icons to tags and anything else, although I think that I get more out of icons than I do with tags.
