I suggested Rush's song Digital Man for a "lyrics challenge" over on tardis_icons - check out the winning ikons. How q00l is that???

Am I weird for not actually liking most of those icons?

I don't get the "teeny tiny print that makes you want to read it but won't let you" thing at all...

If I actually knew the lyrics of Rush's "Digital Man", I might possibly recognise enough of the word shapes to know what's being quoted, but as it is... Just frustrating little shapes fuzzing up the pictures.

Some of those icons might make great posters though: 8 times the height and width, and big enough for the text to be read.

Lyrics here. I'm not fond of unreadable text, either, though I understand people often just use text as part of the design, rather than for its meaning or whatever (I wouldn't be surprised if the song's slightly unusual words stumped some of the ikon makers).

Oh, I totally agree, I hate that. I'm not sure which is more annoying: the deliberately unreadable text, or ones where the text is obviously meant to be read, but it's still unreadable.
I hate unreadable text.
Maybe it's because I'm a bibliophile.
