    Hi, Please review #28 and #29 . Designed the icons (filled and unfilled) based on skype icon theme. Hope you will like it :)

    These designs are not really turning out as I'd wished. One final strategy. For the Large versions, instead go for two circles, with just the thumbs inside (thumbs up and thumbs) down. They should both be unfilled, with white and grey to begin with (using similar grey to the site). Then if the thumbs down gets clicked, it becomes red. If the thumbs up gets clicked, it becomes blue. In terms of styling, have a look at the circles that Skype use, they are generally quite nice. Keep the positioning the same - top right corner.

    Concentrate on making something look professional. Ensure that the icons are well aligned both vertically and horizontally. Make sure that you demonstrate what the icons will look like both clicked and unclicked. Ensure that the 'small' version are big enough to click easily for somebody. As they may sit on an image themselves, perhaps you'd like to make them somewhat transparent? To emphasise when a button has been clicked vs hasn't, perhaps the starting colour for both buttons could be quite neutral? And then only after they've been clicked do they become blue and red, respectively.

    To clarify, the Large icon should be rectangular, and the Small one should be a thumb - possibly inside a circle (that might look good).

    Hi, submitting another variant. Could you please confirm if you wish to use "Hate" word ? Hate sounds too harsh. "Dislike" - Unclicked....."Disliked" - Clicked.... can be used as substitution. Let me know :)

    No great designs so far. Best to look to Twitter, Soundcloud, LastFM etc. for inspiration

      You should be determining that. I'd say somewhere in the region of 25x25 for the Small, and Large maybe around 35x100. Up to you.
