a lot of these are terrible, made by an animator who doesn't understand design and just wants to make lines move for the heck of it.
Since you hold a strong opinion on the quality, can you give an example of an animated icon pack which keeps to good design standards?
nope!
i agree these arent wonderful but i also like the idea in general and wouldnt want amazing icons to steal attention from the actual app functions anyway
They made me want to click each of them. So am I allowed to consider them nice, or is your "professional" opinion going to be the judgement of that?
if you have to ask me for "permission" for having your own opinions, well, i won't stop you.
No, I am essentially asking why they suck if a common user, such as me, likes them. Seems they fulfilled their purpose?
Then that is your opinion and you are entitled to it.
I do not like them because the animations are arbitrary, with no proper theme and consistency to how they work and what they actually represent.
I know I am. I am also entitled to challenge your notion of "this is terrible" that is not really constructive to
This is actually informative.
