Black Macbook Icon.

MattyK · 02:03 AM

Hey guys, I just finished off a Black Macbook icon I made as a HDD image, let me know what you think! Creative criticism is welcome. Feel free to use it, also.

Looks great!
the trackpad could be a little wider I guess, and I'd place the whole keyboard a few pixels to the left, there's too much spacing on the left side of it compared to the right side...

Good job!

Wow looks brilliant, that's really great work MattyK

Well done

^ I agree with the comment about the trackpad, keyboard looks fine to me

Make the trackpad wider and space it in the middle. And change the font of the "MacBook" text to Myriad (or Myriad Pro).

Good Job

There is an icon in your system files, here it is. For yours, I think the corners at the bottom of the notebook should be more rounded.

Oh, Oh well, I like mine better, It looks better IMO :P

That's a good job.

I agree about the rouning on the bottom corners (at first I thought you made a Dell Inspiron 1100 or a ThinkPad, no offense).

Still looks good though

simple enough, i'll just round the corners off an extra 2-3 pixels

if people want I can post some other icons i made of the imac which are pretty smack bang on the real thing.

I would also suggest you make the screen a bit taller, and make the edges of it less round.
