Discuss the technical aspects of your work and highlight the strengths / areas to develop

To create my icons I used a range of tools in Photoshop thing like the brush tool, crop, the selected tool I also used options like save for web and devices I used this on my finished design to created transparent .GIF. I also used layers to get the border effects haw I wanted them and them merged the layers so it started like that. But before I did any of that I hand draw them and scanned them in at 300dpi.
