A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Icon Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's amazingly popular mobile device engineered to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is just like the iPhone sans telephone, 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 could be all that you would like. However , it is very easy to make your own customized icons if you know a little bit of Photoshop.
The fundamentals
Make a new document in Photoshop that is 60 pixels by sixty pixels with a clear background. Then make a new layer and Select All. You're going to need 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 put it aside.
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 certain that 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 sophisticated background. Just think of it as if you are making desktop wallpaper and you can still get wonderful 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 plan on putting on top of it. You can now outline what the icon is being used for. That is, what is it - an internet browser icon, picture spectator, game app. You can use a complex image or simple text to get this across.
Make your symbol design which can be a cutout of a photo or graphic, a mono- or bi-color design - anything you can think of 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 typically all focused.
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 needed except for web images. Reserve it as a PSD or Photoshop file which should 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 gadget.
