09 Feb My icon is bigger than yours.
Category: Apple, Design, Icon Design, Personal Work

Since my office walls are awfully empty, I decided to design one of my favorite Mac OS X icons by Apple at 2 by 2 meters. Although the Photoshop file got awfully big (the original is rendered, but I redid it in Photoshop), it works pretty well as a wallpaper. Making it took about a day and a half (I haven’t worked on it ‘full-time’, as I’ve got client work too) I’ll post new pictures in this post next Tuesday when I expect the print to be put up in the office.

For now, check out the wallpaper version preview at Flickr.

    The gear looks fantastic! The only thing I noticed wrong, really, was that the perferations beind the gears don’t line up horizontally – but they do on the icon itself.
