A Quick Way To Make Customized iPhone Images
The iPhone and its gadget-cousin, the iTouch is Apple's wildly popular mobile device designed to make phoning that next level of cool. The iTouch is the same as the iPhone sans telephone, and it works just like it excepting the telephone 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 basics
Make a new document in Photoshop that is sixty pixels by sixty pixels with a clear background. Then make a new layer and Select All. You're 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'll stay uniform. Be sure 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 sure 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 could 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 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 targeted 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 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 machine.
