Design in Flight #2: Creating Interface Icons is a post on The Hickensian

Design in Flight Issue 2

Issue 2 of the excellent PDF magazine Design in Flight is now out, including my article on creating the interface icons for NetNewsWire 2. This is my first ‘proper’ article, and I found the process rather daunting, especially after reading the first issue, where the quality of the articles was so high.
The question I get asked the most is ‘How do you create icons?’, so hopefully the walk-through will be useful.

At $10 for a year’s subscription Design in Flight its a snip, and Issue 2 contains articles by Eric Meyer, Keith Robinson, Eris Free and many others.

The Hickensian is the journal of Jon Hicks, one half of the creative partnership Hicksdesign. See the work we do.
