A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Icon Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's amazingly popular portable gizmo built to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is just like the iPhone sans phone, and it works just like it excepting the phonephone portion.When it comes to icons, the iPhone is the best, and the default application icons might be all that you want. However , it is really easy to make your own customized icons if you know a bit of Photoshop.
The fundamentals
Make a new document in Photoshop that is 60 pixels by 60 pixels with a clear background. Then make a new layer and Select All. You are going to need 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 could define the theme and it'll stay uniform. Be certain and reserve it.
Make sure that your layer is selected by Ctrl+Click on the layer preview thumbnail on the layers palette. Make the background of your icon. Be sure that 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 typically have a delicate background. Just regard it as if you are making desktop wallpaper and you'll still get excellent results.
Make sure that your text on top has good contrast to your background, so you might need to darken or lighten your background depending on what you're counting on putting on top of it. You can now outline what the icon is being used for. That is, what is it - a browser icon, picture viewer, game app. You may use a complex image or straightforward 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 centered and should have anywhere from 5- to 10 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 are going to want to save it as a PNG file. Use the File >> Save As dialog as it won' do compression which is not required apart from web photographs. Reserve it as a PSD or Photoshop file which may 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 device .
