Website Design Icons: What Do You Think?

When creating a website it is very important that the site is intuitive, interesting and EZ on the eyes. An integral part of that is icon design.
We are trying our best to come up with some very unique icons for our community and we need some help from our readers. We could always use lame stock icons… but hey… we aim higher for the best user experience and decided to design our own.
We are trying to maintain a hip, cool, web 2.0 vibe without being too techie and stark in the design… So please take a look at the icons and tell us which ones you like and why and which ones you don’t like and why.
The icons (in order) are for:
Ratings
Reviews
Questions
MojoMeter
Friends
Buttons

Tell us what you think. We appreciate your design input. It really helps us in our mission to make MojoPages as good as possible.

I think based on these icons that blue thumbs up will look better on the site than orange. I like the orange mojo meter best.
I think all the blue combinations look great. But you need to work on the feminine colors too
-V
Good:
Reviews and question mark icon great
Friends very good
Bad:
Thumbs Icon Group - White highlighting? located on the bottom of the icons blends into the hand too much.
Mojo Meter - Seems like they might be out of order - 3 seems like it should be in place 2; 1,3,4 seem to have a round “highlight”, while 2 is square or rectangular. I’d prefer square or rectangular over the round; 1, in design not color, all should be more similar to 4; 2 and three should most resemble 2 with hot on the left and cold on the right; 2 left side red, right orange; 3 left side orange, right side blue; 1 and 4 either solid or blend on edge closest to next icon

Le Bon, We actually have hired this firm to do custom designed icons for mojopages. We really like the style. You have a good eye to make that connection.
