A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Icon Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's amazingly popular portable gadget built to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is just like the iPhone sans phone, and it works just like it except for the phonephone portion.When it comes to icons, the iPhone is the best, and the default application icons could be all that you would like. However , it is really easy to make your own customised icons if you know a bit of Photoshop.
The basics
Create a new document in Photoshop that is 60 pixels by 60 pixels with a transparent background. Then make a new layer and Select All. You're going to require to make the sides of your iPhone icon rounded so Select Smooth and make it at 5 pixels.
Take the graphic and wallpaper the icon which is the back part of the icon. This will outline the theme and it'll stay uniform. Be certain and reserve it.
Ensure that your layer is selected by Ctrl+Click on the layer preview thumbnail on the layers palette. Make the background of your icon. Be certain the whole area is selected. Make a three-color gradient for best effect with the lighter side on one. Make it a Linear gradient because if you look at iPhone icons, they generally have a subtle background. Just consider it as if you are making desktop wallpaper and you can still get wonderful results.
Ensure that your text on top has good contrast to your background, so you may need to darken or lighten your background dependent on what you are counting on putting on top of it. You can now define what the icon is being used for. That is, what is it - a web browser icon, picture viewer, game app. You may use a complicated image or easy text to get this across.
Make your symbol design which can be a cutout of a photograph or graphic, a mono- or bi-color design - anything you can think about will work. Your symbol should be targeted and should have anywhere from 5- to ten pixel padding on all sides. Match as close as you can most themes which are sometimes all centered.
Make A Template Of Your First Icon
When you save the icon files, you will want to put it aside as a PNG file. Use the File >> Save As dialog as it will not do compression which is not required except for web pictures. Put it aside as a PSD or Photoshop file which will be your template for making future icons. You can now upload the PNG file to your iPhone/iTouch and have your first unique icon for your machine.
