Çoğu zaman tasarımlarımızı tamamlaması için iconlara ihtiyaç duyarız ve birçoğumuz bu ikonları hazır olanlardan seçmeyi tercih ederiz. Peki hiç kendi ikonunuzu kendiniz yapmayı düşündünüz mü?

İkon yapmak için dikkat etmeniz gerekenler

• İkonun boyu
• İkonun rengi
• İkonun parlaklık derecesi
• İkonun transparan olacak bölümlerine karar vermek

Bu bilgiler doğrultusunda istediğimiz şekilde ikon yapabiliriz. Pekiştirici olması açısından sizlere örnek siteler vereceğim bu sitelerde çeşitli ikonların yapımları anlatılmış durumda ancak tek sorun ingilizce olmaları. Resimlerle anlatıldığı için kolayca kavrayabileceğinizi düşündüm. İşte o ikon yapmayı anlatan siteler
