A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Icon Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's wildly popular portable gadget built to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is rather 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 need. However , it is really easy to make your own customized icons if you know a little bit of Photoshop.
The fundamentals
Create a new document in Photoshop that is 60 pixels by 60 pixels with a transparent background. Then create a new layer and Select All. You are going to want to make the perimeters of your iPhone icon rounded so Select Smooth and make it at five pixels.
Take the graphic and wallpaper the icon which is the back part of the icon. This may outline the theme and it will stay uniform. Be certain and save 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 full 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 usually have a delicate background. Just regard 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 could 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 - an internet browser icon, picture viewer, game app. You may use a complicated image or simple 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 focused and should have anywhere from 5- to ten pixel padding on all sides. Match as near 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 because it won' do compression which is not required apart from web pictures. Reserve it 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.
