Picture Perfect Icons - Icons for desktops can be small feature guides or large application icons chock full of detail - a giant canvas just waiting to be filled and nicely detailed can be very intimidating. Don?t worry though: Icon Resource will show you how to fit your vision into those power- of-two pixel size documents one shape layer at a time.
Built to Scale - Icons come in many shapes and sizes; from glyphic pictograms to elaborate ?realistic? HIG-compliant OS X and Windows icons Icon Resource covers sketching them out modeling them in just Photoshop or similarly featured software and ensuring they kick ass at all intended sizes ? including fitting them into cramped spaces.
Theoretically Academic - Icon Resource doesn?t just let you figure out the design methods and step-by-steps for pretty pictures it also tells you a bit about the background of icon design the guidelines you have to adhere on various platforms and teaches you common pitfalls so you can prevent those nasty ?redesign situations?.
