A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Icon Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's heavily favored portable gadget built to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is the same as 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 could be all that you need. However , it is really easy to make your own customised icons if you know a bit of Photoshop.
The fundamentals
Make a new document in Photoshop that is sixty pixels by sixty pixels with a transparent background. Then make a new layer and Select All. You are going to want to make the edges 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 may outline the theme and it will stay uniform. Be certain and put it aside.
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 entire 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 subtle background. Just consider 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 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 can use a complex image or simple text to get this across.
Make your symbol design which could be a cutout of a photo 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 generally all focused.
Make A Template Of Your First Icon
When you save the icon files, you will want to reserve it as a PNG file. Use the File >> Save As dialog because it will not do compression which is not needed except for web pictures. Save 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 gadget.
