I'm not really all that impressed. - virtualball, on 10/10/2007, -2/+20Wednesday. Where've you been? Under a rock?
- badjoke, on 10/10/2007, -4/+22Those are utterly disgusting.
- djsim, on 10/10/2007, -8/+24Looks sweet, if only I actually had an iPhone to install these on. :(
- jtbandes, on 10/10/2007, -5/+20Those iPod icons are fabulous, but the click wheel needs to be moved up by one pixel.
[/perfectionist] - falloutsyndrome, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15These iphone sites go down faster than Jenna Jameson in "Sins of the throat"
- spargett, on 10/10/2007, -4/+16P.S. The SMS and Phone icons REALLY need a facelift.
- hadi, on 10/10/2007, -4/+13this is not improved! originals is better
- monsterofNone, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9improved usually means they are in some way superior to the original.
these show no improvement. - durandal2005, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8Thanks, I think I'm bleeding out my eyes now; you can't possibly think those are better than these, or even the default icons.
- SpikeX, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8That's why we have things called mirrors, my dear boy.
- badjoke, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7They are. You honestly thing those things look good?
- louiemantia, on 10/10/2007, -3/+91. So what if you're not a fan of the click wheel? It is the most distinguishable feature of an iPod.
2. Yes, the weather icon is darker. There were four brightly colored blue icons, same blue in fact. I matched the color to their actual application and corresponding Dashboard widget.
3. Do not make the mistake that I just "Photoshopped" it to be darker, everything was created from scratch, I don't cut corners.
4. YouTube is not to be resembled by a TV. YouTube is recognizable by its gray/red/black controls.
The palm tree, with the orange background is a very recognizable image to any Mac user, it's resemblence is used in iPhoto and other icons and interface elements where "Photos" needs to come across. - jtbandes, on 10/10/2007, -2/+7"read me or die.rtf"
- battletops, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6How about some Leopard-sized versions of the iPhone icons that I got my hands on...

- Jerk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Dugg back up because he contributed and you didn't. Retard.

- Cimlite, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Is it too much to ask that you actually check to see if Duggmirror caught it before posting?...
- seventoes, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4I swear ive heard someone say that before...
- goodcompany, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Jesus dude, relax. There is some nice work here, not a giant leap forward and not all perfect, but nicely executed. I hope as you get older you might consider being more constructive with your criticism, as you have some good points but they get a little lost in your rage and negativity.
- Terc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Nope, those crap icons you posted were just BAD. No one even believes that you were serious
- virtualball, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6Those look awesome, it seems much more "toned down" then the original icons. I'm suprised that Apple didn't make darker and more muffled-colored icons actually, seeing as how Apple's moving away from the candy-colored era...
- MikeEnIke, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4Apparently, because they're ***** ugly.
- celeronxl, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6http://img210.imageshack.us/my.php?image=iphonelargexv5.jpg
- Terc, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Let me fix that for you.
"Well, I think *these icons* are nicer, but the *original icons* are better at conveying their function."
"these ones" is so grammatically incorrect... I had to say something. Also, If you're familiar with OS X/iPod, you'll find these replacements to be much more intuitive. - DaleoftheUK, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3Only one that probably suits it's job better, is the Youtube icon. Others aren't so great.
- pabloD, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2ZOMG, those things are ug-leee. No regard for color balance, use of space, or typography. I would venture to say that the same people who like htese are the people who populate thier MySpace pages with flashy, ugly, blinking crap.
- abrooks, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Arrrrrrrrrrrrrgh! My eyes!!!!!!
- apotropaic, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3replacing apple's choice for icons... blasphemy!
- mikev, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2i feel like gouging my eyes out with a spork
- tmalloy, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4http://louiemantia.com.nyud.net:8080/interface/iphone.html
- benjic, on 10/10/2007, -5/+7Are better.
By the way, no, they aren't. - badjoke, on 10/10/2007, -2/+3Sorry. In the zip is a readme for each image. Handy.
- chembro303, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1exactly. The youtube icon is more effective at connoting its function. The others, however, are at best equally effective as the originals. Mostly, they're much worse.
- elcaminos, on 10/10/2007, -6/+7Good god when is apple going to release some official *****?
- spargett, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Sorry... there was some weird bug with the posting box, ended up going twice. I had no way to fix it.
- dinxcarin, on 06/01/2009, -0/+1I can't open the link.what happened?
- steveooo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Yuck.... Those are gross. I think the point of icons is to know what it is for, half of those icons I think might magically take me on vacation...
- HairyGrapeNuts, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Same here.
- emontada, on 06/17/2009, -0/+0http://www.bravoserve.com

http://www.lawwen.com - leksdraven, on 10/10/2007, -3/+3Buried as inaccurate. These are not "improved." They suck.
- mdr3m, on 04/25/2008, -0/+0Thanks
http://www.directory-world-languages.com/Arabic/ - mkgt2, on 04/27/2009, -0/+0Make your own icons with an icon generator. http://www.flavorstudios.com/tools/iphone-icons.as ... This site is a tool with instructions on how to use icons that personalize your iphone, website and or computer by generating icons for you. Use your own images to make a whole set of icons. This tool will generate a favicon, apple-touch-icon and iphone application icon for free. Does anyone else think this is a cool tool?
- djdole, on 10/10/2007, -6/+6Pretty photo shopping doesn't equate to improved design, or even good design for that matter.
1. Was never a fan of the click-wheel. That's why I never bought an iPod, and waited for a touch-screen interface that came with the iPhone. Besides my personal preference, it's not very good GUI design to plaster user interface images all over your buttons. You aren't accessing a click-wheel by pressing the click wheel button, you'd be accessing the iPod application (which does not make use of a click-wheel at all).
2. The only difference with the weather icon is that the background is darker. This is lame because it makes it look like it's night in the background wile the sun is shining bright.
3. The only difference in the stock icon is that it too, was photo shopped to be darker than the original. Uninspired, unoriginal and definitely not an improvement.
4. Second row, first icon. Another reason not to plaster pictures of GUI components upon your GUI component.
What does this button tell the user it accesses? A play button and a slider?
As for the palm tree, who knows what it's intended for. Pretty shiny picture, but bad design again.
Lame or inaccurate, buried either way. - dirceuctba, on 02/03/2008, -0/+0How to design iPhone Style icons:
http://fasticon.com/freeware/?p=84#more-84
I think that's great the people creating new icons for iPhone.
So I did this quick "how to". - z10splayer, on 02/02/2008, -0/+0If you want to add customized icons to your iPhone homescreen check out this webapp: http://www.icons4iphone.com
