Vellum Adds a ‘Daily Wallpaper’ Section to the App

Vellum — the well-crafted wallpaper app by Marek Davis offers a steady stream of stunning wallpapers for your iPhone and Apple Watch. The app was updated to version 1.1 last week that adds a new ‘Daily Wallpaper’ section to the app.

With this section, the app will deliver a new wallpaper every day, all-year. These wallpapers are only available on the day of debut, so make sure you save them to your Camera Roll when they drop in.

Vellum continues to be available Free on the App Store, with still no IAP option to turn off the ugly ad banner at the bottom.

Bjango’s Marc Edwards and his Mac App Icon Design Workflow

Marc Edwards and his Mac App Icon Design Workflow

Marc Edwards has been crafting some exceptional apps at Bjango for many years now. Bjango’s iStat suite of apps is an essential addition to my toolkit. Marc has shared his Mac app icon design workflow on the Bjango website today.

My favourite Mac app icons are simple enough to be easily read in the Dock, yet they contain interesting details when viewed up close. They have large vibrant areas of colour, yet they contain enough contrast and shading to give them a sense of volume.

If you’re a designer or just curious about how Marc designs those beautiful Mac app icons, you should read this.

Spotio — An Rdio-inspired Skin for Spotify

Here’s an interesting project we came across a couple of days ago. Devin Halladay — a designer and writer from Baltimore has crafted a complete visual overhaul of the Spotify Mac app that makes it look and feel more like the Rdio app — the music streaming service that Pandora acquired a few months ago. The Spotify app on Mac features only a Dark UI and while it looks great, this sure is an interesting way to theme it. Why...
