LINE Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 05)

Line Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 05)
     Oops- I did it again... Just like Ms Spears.  I forgot to post this on Saturday so now... here I am again, on Sunday, apologizing.  I'm sorry.  I am apparently lazy and forgetful.  Nonetheless, I do have 12 new sticker sets to post from the Creators Market.
     The Creators market on the LINE application now has over 6000 uncategorized stickers, made by every day artists.  Because it's such a hassle to browse through 6000+ sticker sets on your own, I am here to show you a few of the best ones, every week.  Enjoy~!

LINE Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 04)

Line Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 04)
     I apologize for being a day late.  I completely forgot to post this up, yesterday.  Because of my laziness I will be adding 2 additional hidden gems in today's post.  So, rather than being 10 gems this week, you will get 12.
     these are LINE sticker sets created by artists around the world and added to their "Creator's Market".  Because there is no categories in the Creator's Marker, despite having over five thousand sticker sets, it can be hard to sift through the sets and find the good ones.  With new sticker sets added daily, it can be a real chore to search through.  So I do the hard work for you!  It's always hard to choose just a few sets, each week.  But I'll continue to do my best to bring you some of the best of the best.
     Remember, you can click the pictures below to view a larger version.  Type in the name to the sticker set search bar in the LINE app to find that sticker set.

     Once again we look into the Creator's Market in the LINE app by NAVER.  For those not yet aware, LINE is an instant messaging application that, among other functions, allows you to show emotion in your conversation with the use of stickers.  You can get official stickers from the Sticker Shop.  You can also get cheaper, artist made stickers from the Creator's Market.
     Because the Creator's Market is not categorized even though there are over four thousand sticker packs, I have taken the liberty of sifting through them all and giving you 10 hidden gems every week.  Trust me, it's hard!  New stickers sets come out ever day.  There are so many great sets.  it's hard to choose just 10 each week.
     Without further delay, here are this weeks picks.  Remember, they are in no particular order.

     It's time for another list of hidden treasures in the Creator's Market!  Before I list the sticker sets, I wanted to share what I look for, and avoid, in sticker sets.
     When I browse the sticker sets I try to avoid sets that have too much text on them.  When every sticker has words on it, it takes away from the art.  Your stickers should be able to portray the emotion that sticker represents without the assistance of words.  I also like a nice contrast of colours.  Light pastels are lovely on drawings, but I personally don't care for them in sticker sets.  I feel they are harder to see, since the art is so small.  Speaking of, I don't like overly busy stickers.  Too much detail... Or even too little, can make a sticker set undesirable to me.  Lastly, good artwork quality and a good range of emotions that I could easily see myself using during a conversation.
     I hope that you will enjoy this week's list of sticker sets and help support the artist community by purchasing a few, if they are to your liking.  Remember, I do not know any of the artists.  These are my personal picks, based off of the sticker sets themselves.

LINE Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 01)

Line Creators Market: Hidden Gems (Week 01)
     I know it's been ages since I have contributed any app reviews.  However, I thought I might revive this blog by adding this small segment.  Perhaps it shall give me the inspiration and motivation to continue my app reviews.
     If you are one of the many users of NAVER's LINE messenger application, then you probably enjoy their wide variety of fun stickers that you can use to express emotion in the chats or when making updates.  Recently LINE has added a new feature called the LINE Creators Market, where users can create and sell stickers through the LINE sticker shoppe.  The issue I see is there are thousands (At current, over 4000) of stickers and no categorizing at all.  They are all just thrown together.  It makes the process of finding the right stickers for you a bit tedious.  I have many times looked through each of the sticker packs to find the hidden gems.  I thought, "Why not share these treasures with others"?  And so I shall.
     Each Saturday I shall post 10 of my favourite Creators Market sticker packs.  The name of the pack will be visible so that you may enter it into the search bar in the sticker shoppe.  That will take you directly to the sticker pack so that you might purchase it.  I have purchased several, myself.  And I am even creating my own packs.  Though I wont post them as my hidden gem favourites.  I am not so conceited.  I support the artist community in any way that I can.  And this is a great way to do so!  I look for quality of art as well as a variety of expressions that can be easily utilized during a typical chat session.  I prefer more exaggerated expressions, personally.  Subtle changes to a face of the same pose can be dull.  Below are this week's ten (Not in any order) sticker packs that I love.  You may click the images to enlarge.
