Cookbook: Fancy color names or Royal Blue
2008-03-28 09:23:00 It all started when our client wrote, seemingly as an afterthought: ?Please change the color of the icon to royal blue.? To tell you the truth, this request struck me as rather unusual. We have dark blue, light blue and ordinary blue, but no royal blue that I knew about. So I did some research.

Cookbook: Enlarge your icons
2008-03-18 12:50:00 A small icon is OK! It?s nothing to be ashamed of; it?s not a big deal. Icons can even be very small or plain tiny. This has been their iconic fate.

Cookbook: 10 Mistakes in Icon Design
2008-02-12 10:21:00 It is much easier to criticize somebody else?s work than to create something cool yourself. But if you apply a systematic approach to criticizing, make a numbered list and prepare illustrations, it will be regarded as a fully-fledged analysis! In my opinion, icon design is undergoing a transitional period. On the one hand, screen resolutions are increasing, hence enhancing icons. On the other hand, we still have good old pixels. Icon s sized 16×16 and even smaller are still widely used. And so, here are the most commonly observed mistakes in icon design… Read more… More About: Design , Criticism , Cookbook
