Delivery Status @2x
I can't tell you how pleased I am with myself for working with vectors whenever possible.
View ArticleDelivery Status: Favorites
Trying to work out the UX for favorites. Originally the plan was to have these stars always visible. You could tap the star to mark or unmark it as a favorite. The list would have two sections:...
View ArticleSide Project
Just something I've been fooling around with for a while. I've found it really useful, but there are two other major parts I need to create before it's a real product. It might be while. Apologies for...
View ArticleDelivery Status: Favorites
I had a really hard time getting these custom popups to feel right, but I think this pretty good. Here are some of the other options I tried:...
View ArticleDelivery Status: Favorites, Take 9
I was playing around in Interface Builder and found the "round textured" style of popup, which seemed like it might be a better fit for the widget. I tweaked it a bit, but it's the same idea—a lighter...
View ArticleA mysterious Delivery Status button
Hmm, things seem a bit out of order as well. Puzzling…
View ArticleDelivery Status: Editing
After you tap the Edit button in Delivery Status, you can tap on a delivery to edit it. This behavior was originally based on the Alarms section of the Clock app. When you edit your Alarms, an arrow...
View ArticleDelivery Status: Item Name
Nothing too exciting here, but I could use some feedback on this, especially from anyone who uses Delivery Status a lot. In the latest beta versions of Delivery Status, I've moved the tracking...
View ArticleTwitteriffic with a bit more space
Just a small tweak to David Lanham's Twitteriffic screenshot. I think what's making it looked cramped is the space around each grouping, rather than the space between each item. Of course the downside...
View ArticleThe Incident for Mac 16px Tweaked
My quick attempt at some adjustments to the 16px icon for The Incident. I'm not sure which legs and feet I prefer, but I think I like my other changes, especially the head.
View ArticleSide Project Icon
Took forever to get this to a point where I'm finally happy with it. So I'm sure I'll hate it tomorrow.
View ArticleJunecloud Sync
Just refreshing some old pixels, and adding something new. P.S. I love -webkit-gradient and I want to have its babies
View ArticleThe Little Ones
I never spent much time on the 32px and 16px icons for Delivery Status, because you almost never see them with a widget. But every time I see them it bugs me, so I put a little more work into them.
View ArticleAbout Screen Arrow
The About screen is a bit hidden. I'd like to make it more obvious, and I'm hoping this subtle arrow will do the job. I also considered just adding a regular "About" cell below Help, but I like this...
View ArticleNotefile Teaser
Working on a teaser page for my new app. With all the straight lines, the "Notefile" text looked really blurry no matter what I did with it. I ended up manually tweaking it in the end. I think I'm...
View ArticleA Junecloud
Just fooling around—I've had this idea floating around in my head and I wanted to get it out. I have no idea what I'd ever use it for, but I kinda like it.
View ArticleJunecloud Shirt
So about a year ago I decided to get some shirts made: http://juncld.com/e3xd And here we are now. I'm going to actually do it this time, really. I had always planned on making it a two color design,...
View ArticleJunecloud Shirt Close Up
Here's a close up of the airplane, with the complete art attached. I've found it really hard to get these lines exactly how I want them—it's a tough balance between looking natural and looking even. I...
View ArticleDelivery Status Promo Art
Trying to put together some promotional art for both of our apps.
View ArticleNotefile Banner
Getting ready to release Notefile 1.1. I blame years of working on infomercial web sites for giant red banners like this.
View ArticleTap Tap
In Delivery Status, if an item has multiple shipments, you can change which one is displayed by double-tapping it. It's a really useful feature and I've never been able to think of a more obvious way...
View ArticleBalloon Tip
Leaning toward something like this for the display of the animated tip. I tried a bunch of other options, including one that looked like a standard iOS alert, but they seemed too formal. The trickiest...
View ArticleNotefile window buttons
I love Dashboard (like I had to tell you that), but for a while now it has been a bit ignored. Especially recently—there's no place for widgets in the Mac App Store, and because of that it looks like...
View ArticleNotefile for Mac take 2
I'm not sure if this is final yet, but I decided to tweak the window design for the Notefile Mac app I've been working on. The more I polished the design, the more apparent it became that the previous...
View ArticleNotefile Sync Preferences
I needed a cloud icon for Notefile's sync preferences, so I figured I'd repurpose the cloud I was playing around with earlier this year. I'm not entirely sure this is final, but I'm pretty happy with...
View ArticleApple Touch Icon
I've spent the past couple of weeks polishing up the Junecloud site—refining text, tons of little layout tweaks, reorganizing things, adding iPhone and iPad portrait layouts, and so on. Now that I'm...
View ArticleNotefile for Mac icon
Not quite done with this, but I'm mostly happy with it at this size.
View ArticleNotefile for Mac take 3
After living with the previous design for a while I've finally decided to rework it one more time. There were two main issues with the previous design: It didn't feel quite at home. It felt like some...
View ArticleNotefile for Mac icon revised
Taking a break from battling iCloud to clean up this icon a bit. I find it hard to stop incessantly tweaking little details. I finally got to a point where my revisions looked worse, and I had to...
View ArticleGeneral Preferences
Not the most exciting screen to look at, but I'm really happy with how it came out from an interaction standpoint, so I thought I'd share. You can choose to display the app in the menu bar or in the...
View ArticleBarcode Scanner
I'm adding a 1Password button to Delivery Status for the next big update (among many other things). I thought the 1Password icon itself worked best here for a button, so it needed a new barcode scanner...
View ArticleExperimenting
When I originally designed the Delivery Status icon, I think there was a lot more experimentation going on with iPhone icons. Some had 3D effects, some actually made theirs a different shape by giving...
View ArticleDelivery Status 5 Teaser
I suppose it's time I started showing this off a little. You might remember that I was experimenting with a simpler icon—with iOS 7 it made sense to simplify even more. Naturally the whole app has...
View ArticleDelivery Status Promo Art
I always end up having to throw these together really quickly, and I'm never happy with how they turn out. Zero concept, mediocre execution. This time around I think I actually had a half decent idea...
View ArticleNotefile for iOS icon
I was reasonably happy with the Notefile 2.0 icon (on the left) but I've gotten a few complaints from people who don't think it fits in well. After talking it over and trying it on a bigger variety of...
View ArticleNotefile for iOS icon, once more
As I commented on the previous shot, the main texture on the Notefile icon was actually blurry at the top, so I finally took the time to clean it up. I spent a ton of time messing with various parts of...
View ArticleNotefile for Mac icon, revised
I think the difference in these icons is even greater than what you can see here. With the original icon I was too concerned about making it look realistic—and I spent too much time trying to...
View ArticleAdd to Deliveries
So this is a tricky one. I'm working on an Action extension, and those have very simple, grey on white icons. Check out the attachment to see a bit more context. As you can see the built-in "Action"...
View ArticleAdd to Deliveries take 2
Hours of tweaking later, I'm pretty happy with this one. Took me a while to figure out exactly which details to drop. I only kept what seemed important for it to read as the Deliveries icon, and I...
View ArticleDeliveries 6…?
As I finish up Deliveries 6.0, I couldn't help but poke at the icon a little. Especially after creating the simplified version for the Action extension. I've been tempted to tweak this icon for a...
View ArticleDeliveries for Apple Watch
I've been tinkering with this for the past week or so. These are actually screenshots of the app, already functional—and displayed in the wonderful Bezel app by Troy Gaul. Working with the Apple Watch...
View ArticleJunecloud.com redesign
I just submitted a couple of big updates to Deliveries, so now it's time to switch gears for a bit and do some web design. I started working on a junecloud.com redesign over a year ago, but I got...
View ArticleJunecloud Logo 2.0
A bunch of little things have been bugging me about the Junecloud logo for a while now. When I started working on a new site I figured it was a good time to revisit it. The J has bugged me the most—it...
View ArticlePreferences icons
I needed a new icon so of course I made four new icons. The new screen is first (with four icons), the old screen with three icons is after that for comparison. The Shortcuts icon is the new one I...
View ArticleSync cloud revised
This change is so subtle I almost didn't bother to share it, but why not. @[215:Sebastiaan de With ✏️] convinced me to mess with the Sync cloud a bit more. I don't know if this is what he had in mind,...
