Collage 2 plug-in icon

Thursday May 29, 2008 Filed in: Icons
We recently completed a custom icon design for YourHead Software’s latest RapidWeaver plug-in. Their newest plug-in is an almost entirely new, reworked version of the original Collage plug-in.

About Collage 2
Collage builds great looking thumbnails from your images, styles them all with slick graphical effects, and links them to other content on your site.  With Collage you can add smooth Javascript animations like lightbox effects, slideshows, or a pop-up hovering info box.  And you don't have to be an computer guru to do it.  Just drag in a few images, select a style, and publish.

The vision
The idea came directly from YourHead’s very own Isaiah. The thought of Polaroids and a Gluestic that Isaiah had pictured immediately provoked images of collages and assemblage. We developed his idea into a fullfledged icon. Have a look:

The new plug-in went into public beta testing today. Be sure to go check it out. We also created some of the built-in Collage Styles through our sister site, elixir graphics.

It's the bomb

Up until now I have used PhotoShop and Illustrator in designing all of my graphics for the web and print. Whether the projects be icons or websites or ads I've toiled away in these two apps for over 10 years.

Recently I took an interest in learning and using Cinema 4D to model icons in 3D.

I've already begun to dive into the application and so far I am enjoying it a lot. I find it pretty intuitive so far and see a wealth of potential.

As I learn Cinema 4D I will have some freebies to post — starting today.

Here's my first Cinema 4D designed freebie.

I've included sizes 512 x 512 down through 16 x 16 in PNG, TIFF, ICNS, ICO and Mac Folder.

Webify allows you to:
• Increase/decrease Exposure
• Increase/decrease Saturation
