[Icons] Torchwood


I just finished watching this series of Torchwood, the five-part “Children of Earth” and was inspired to create the logo as an icon. I’ve always been a huge fan of Doctor Who, so I’m an obvious fan of Torchwood as well. Celebrate the new miniseries with this cool icon!

[Icon] Google Voice

A few days ago, I was finally accepted into Google Voice (invite only), and immediately made a SSB with Fluid.app. Until Google creates their own Google Voice application, it seems Fluid is the way to go. Obviously I needed an icon, so I set out to make something modern and fitting! Enjoy. :D



Thanks to Dustin Schau for the glyphs.

[Icons] Plants vs. Zombies

Nothing is more epic than a battle between two great forces. It just so happens one of these forces are…garden plants. And the others are ZOMBIES! If you haven’t played the hit new game Plants vs. Zombies by PopCap, you absolutely should. It’s a fun and addictive romp!



The game’s great design helped inspired these custom icons, as I wasn’t too impressed with the game’s original icon. :P

[Icons] Unison

Unison is probably the best newsreader on the Mac platform. Brought to you by the fantastic developers at Panic, Unison excels at downloading content from newsgroups quickly and efficiently. I’ve never felt the icon was completely up to par, so I decided to do my own take on it. Enjoy! :D

[SlipCover] SlipCover.app & Cases

SlipCover.app released today, and was greeted by quite the warm reception. Believe it or not, I was involved a bit in the creative process myself; I designed the application’s icon! I worked with the fantastically talented Dustin Schau to create a unique and standout icon that conveys a direct sense of what SlipCover is all about.

There were several waves of drafts for the SlipCover icon, and later on I’m going to write a small feature about concept to creation.

Since SlipCover’s goal is to inspire a sense of community through custom “cases”, I felt it was appropriate to have a couple ready for the app’s launch. I’ll be posting the rest here as I make them. If you have any questions about the app, or how to use these cases, just head over to the official SlipCover website!
