My Favorite Sets Are ~~

Inspired by Cat, I have been collecting icon sets for some time now. Sometimes I am addicted, and sometimes I am not. But I do find some of the sets fascinated. Here are the sets and the reasons why:

1. The Oslo Series: I don't if it is the mythical Nordic legends or is it simply the colors, I always like this set right from the beginning. Plus it is quasi-3D, so there is an extra dimension to the pictures!

2. The Taipei Series: What can I say? I was born there! I also found that each picture represents a different character or scenario and thus presents a vivid portrayal of the kind of complexity you often find in Taipei's old and new styles.

3. The Alexandria Series: Well-balanced and classical, colorful and cute, this is a set that warms your heart.

There several others that I like very much. What do you think?

I am in danger of being kicked out by other icon masters : ( But yes, I do like the Oslo series, but only by a slight margin!

I rather like the sharp, chiseled appearance of the Shanghai series; and thematically, the Shaolin set is a favorite of mine.

I'm fairly new and just getting to examining the many icons here, but the series that jumps out immediately at me is Alexandria. It doesn't hurt that it's just about first alphabetically, but also I'm a sucker for the curvy minimalism and the whispers of "tweak me" they invoke, as they could work well in just about any design, are infinitely recolorable, and even without vector sources I think they'd be pretty friendly to work with in a primarily vector environment...

I'm going to keep exploring the other stuff, but with only 10 tokens per month right now it seems that it might be a slow exploration.

It was seeing the Steampunk set that brought me here.

Faves are Manhattan and Shasta. I'd like to see more Acapulco sets. And for clean classic icons, Alexandria and Linjiang.
