I have just downloaded the beta version of the Versions app recently released by Sofa and Pico. The app itself is a Mac-based subversion client … I think the only one? In any case, I haven’t had any chance to check out the application itself yet - but the icon is boyh! Amazing. I don’t know who did it - but it just rocks so much in the new Leopard dock. Just download it yourself and then take a look at how it “grows.”
I have done this screenshot to show you how the icon sits on the icon. I’ve included three other icons which seem to be the first new icons of an icon revolution (Sebastiaan calls them revolutions). Icons for Mac applications are moving away from the rather front-on view and are adapting to the 3D-look created by the dock.
I like the new look - but I am just hoping that we won’t have a real clush of 2D with 3D icons here. That just wouldn’t look nice in the dock. :-D
Got Thoughts?
By all means share them, and start the conversation.
