ran into that exact problem last night, though in my case I was trying to re-do my Barcelona McKay icon (which I'm now subjecting you to)....

That's alright, I like it. ... because there were (and still are) some areas I'd like to fix. However, no matter what I tried, I only seemed to make it worse. In the end, I decided to leave it faults and all. And I know this probably doesn't sound like the same problem, but there were many parts of the first version that I did want to keep but couldn't replicate.

Pretty similar.

I think I'm going to have to start taking notes when I work on icons, even if it's just to record things like the kind of font I'm using for the text!

Same! I'm always doing weird stuff like adjusting hue/saturation, playing with layers, then I'll save it as a .png or whatever and then do more to it at that stage.

Good luck with the note taking :)
