One of GD's main features is customization. To this day more than 100 icons exist for users to customize their apparel. There are good ones, and down right trash. But which ones are these? Well the ones I'm about to tell you… what did you think I was taking about?
Best 5: Electrodynamix icon
This is definitely my favorite icon you get from a main level. For its time, it's very creative and appealing to the eye. And even though It's a kind of copy and paste design, it's not some blocky or face icon, it's a somewhat spiky and awesome icon.
Worst 5: Gatekeeper's Query icon
A collection of useful GD-related tools and generators, made by GD Colon. Create custom logos, textboxes, and more! Geometry Dash Roulette is a minigame in which you choose a level difficulty and then get the rated levels from that difficulty in a random order. Each time you play a level you must get a higher percent than the previous level, starting at 1% on the first level. The game ends when you either get 100% on a level or you give up.

While I adore the look of all gradients, this one has to be my least favorite. The gradient visuals look fantastic, but the sheer laziness of this icon is what makes me hate it. It's literally just the first icon in the game, with a hole at the bottom and now it's gradient, I could think of that in 1 minute.
Best 4: 4 demons icon
Of course this isn't just a 4 demon icon, it's the icon that The famous player Michigun, and his 2083 clones use 'looking at you white Michigun' While the Electrodynamix icon was detailed for its time, This one literally looks 10x more lovely, and, it was made an update before. If I played back in 1.6 and beat 4 demons, this would definitely be the icon I would use. Also, I love this icon so much I did this.
Worst 4: Rub Rub icon
What's really sad is that this got its own update. It's literally the shy guy icon without eyes and with a slight cut in the middle. I think this is actually a downgrade from the shy guy icon, unlike the Gate keeper Queery icon, it's not gradient, it's just, ugly,
Best 3: 3000 stars icon
I absolutely LOVE Reference icons, and this one looks exactly like the source material. Super meat boy is one of my favorite games too, so having a slightly small game be referenced in a game like this is great! It looks very polished for a 2.0 icon, I used to think it was a 2.1 icon! Sadly I haven't obtained this treasure yet, I only have about 1050 stars.
Worst 3: 130 coins icon
Just imagine, one day, you finally achieved 130 coins, and your prize is, THIS GARBAGE. This is literally the spring icon but theirs a rectangle in the middle now, and their's only one famous GD Youtuber who used that icon, and that's Zobros, but he made it a gradient. So basically they recreated one of the worst icons in the game…
Best 2: Cod3breaker
'The Rarest Pepe around is triggered' anyways, as you know, I call this the scrubbing bubbles icon, because, well, that's what it is pretty much, let's have a comparison.
They both have bristles and a similar head shape, but the eyes are different and it has no face. Personally tho, A soulless scrubbing bubbles icon really appeals to me. I love this icon so much I gave it a smile on the Steam version of GD
It's also really satisfying when you finally pull off the Steps needed to get it, although after doing it, the steps seem really simple.

Worst 2: Catch them all!
The only good thing about this icon is the Pokémon reference, but other than that, it's garbage. First off, the design originates from the top right corner instead of the middle, Excuse me? Second off, this is just lines, no curves, no eyes, just straight lines. This is also pretty hard to unlock, you have to wait for it on the title screen than destroy it, it's Counterpart, the Mario world block, is 10000 times better than this garbage. Fun fact, there used to be a glitch where it was impossible to get this icon without touching a glitched Tiny icon in the menu, and honestly, it should of stayed that way.
Now time for some honerable mentions

AND some dishonorable mentions
Best 1: Thief Thief! 'Shyguy icon'

How can this not be number one? I literally use his icon as my profile picture, and used it in game since I got it. First using red and white, then Gray and white, then ultimately switching to my favorite color combination other than purple and light blue, Black and Light blue. Not only that, but shy guys are not that common of a reference, I would think they would make a reference to Mario or Yoshi, but instead, Robtop went outside of the box and implemented a lesser known Mario character. This shows me that Robtop payed attention to Mario in order to add icons, instead of adding a Mario one just to attract more fans. Once again, I love this icon so much, I just had to go outside the boundaries once again :smirk: :smirk: :smirk:
This is my favorite icon, and will remain that way for a very, very, long time.
Worst 1: Um this cube thing
I'm crying right now because of how bad this icon is. It is just the other beginning icon, but the eyes are closer and the mouth is up more… Why, why, why WHY

Thank god you don't have to get 15000 stars for this icon atleast, Hopefully, Robtop, if you are reading this, don't do that.
