App Design Clinic #4

Design icons

App design Clinic #4 focuses on icons, with questions from Stuart Langridge including:

  • guidance on creating app icons (stylistically and in terms of file format and resolution)
  • tips on how to use action icons

The presentation deck link will be shared on the blog once it’s been checked by our icon designer, and we hope to have an icons guideline with downloadable templates and full API docs online within a month.

The next clinic is held in conjunction with vUDS. Let’s make it a great one,  please send any designs and/or questions to design@ubuntu.com
