With these, it's between 2 & 4 for me. Of the first set, #3.

I agree with the "no border" suggestion.

It looks like there's video with the pointer in the middle. Hmm...

I like the third one here, but would be better without the gloss seeing as the iphone does this itself. If i were the OP, i would use that one and give you credit for it.

I just added the gloss to show the finished product look. The final design would not include that as it would be added automatically once it is installed on the iPhone as you mentioned.

I wouldn't be looking for credit on these either, just wanted to see I could help out!

As I am not real sure about the specifics of your app, I'm not sure if any of these ideas might spark some interest for you. I just thought I'd share a few quick ideas I had.

I too think you may have too many boxes going on and as you only have 6 colors represented collectively, I tried to simplify things.

I hope I'm not stepping on anyones toes but thought since you asked for our thoughts I might chime in with a couple designs.

3 & 4 are easily the best, and most related in terms of design.

OP, steal quick, before he notices :p

Horrible, ugly colours!!!!!

Seriously, do they have to be so loud and contrasting with each other?

Well,no I used different colors to represent "different" square objects but the color itself is not important. Any hint instead of use colors (or suggest a color set to use) ??

I prefer the original candyman's number 3. It has a more balanced look in terms of color and scale.
