Here is another icon I did because I was bored. See how productive I am at school?

Large Version:


Small(ish) version:


Comments? Feedback? Candy?

lol, im the same way, at school when im bored i pump out kicka.. graphics. at home i seem to never be able to get photoshop open, just so lazy and destracted by stuff like youtube

[BokTheGolem]

If only my school had good stuff
I mean nothing could top ms-paint, but sometimes those "easymode" Photoshop and stuff is nice

Really nice logo, only problem is the light blue mid section in the smaller version really shows. Maybe a slightly darker Middle color would look nice on small one.

Looks nice!

Make a vector version so we can make it MASSIVE? xD

[Nick]

I think someone needs a "Large Icon" thread for all your bored icons I like it but the bottom is lacking the 3D feel because of the lack of shading.

[Olli]

I think you should make the small version into an iDevice icon

Ooh, very nice.
Good think about having a jailbroken phone (among other things) is you can change your app icons
Although a version without beveled corners would be nice. The iphone and ipod round the corners themselves, so a square version usually works best to avoid issues.

[Olli]

Nice, i might even use it

[dida]

If you dont want iphone to make it rounded corners you can do that too

that makes no sense at all. Can you rephrase it?

Okay well here it is in the correct size for iDevices.



It looks really lame without the rounded corners, but your mobile will handle that. I don't know if anyone will actually use this, but whatever.

Oh real quick, does anyone know the actual real font used for facebook? The one i'm using here is called Klavika. It isn't exactly the same though.

[Daniel15]

It is a customised version of Klavika, they've just done some minor changes to the font, and used stronger antialiasing than you have.

Klavika is most noticeable as the basis for the Facebook logo.

[Maxx]

So cool! I surely need some lessons from you.

[Olli]

Yeah i also use Klavika when I'm making something to do with FB. I'm guessing they will have modded it, all thats different there is the K is together, and the a is more bent.

edit: and the f is a little different as well.

[Matas]

And so is the a,b, and c nice work though

[inkjetcanvas]

Yeah a good logo will often not take a font as-is, but tweak it to make the letters "work better" together, or achieve some other result.

I like your icons though! On the very very first one, the only thing a bit off is the 'depth' of the bookmark. I think what I mean is make it look more 3D-ish. Like have it droop a little bit, like soft silk.

Nicely done!
