iPhone 2.0 Design Contest
iLounge is having an iPhone 2.0 design contest, so I decided to give it a shot. I’ve previously played Photoshop tennis over at iStockPhoto.com, and this contest was just the ticket to get that side of my brain working again.
Here’s my entry: The iPhone Gesture. It was done with Lightwave 9, Photoshop, and Illustrator.
A (not so) funny story about Lightwave: I first used it on an Amiga when it first came out as part of the Video Toaster suite (I actually use to teach people how to use VT in college). After the Amiga platform died, I stopped using it, only to pick it up again for this project. Its user interface brings back some memories, as it hasn’t really changed much. I’m just amazed that something that originated from the Amiga platform still lives on as a successful product.
