Leopard Icons

[Jasonbot]

CAn you believe how huge the leopard icons are? I put coverflow as big as i coluld get it on my screen and i could actually read the fine print on the HDD icon.

screenshot:

for those who cant read it says:
Internal Hard Disk
Handle this hard drive carefully to
avoid damaging the circuit board
Make sure you are properly grounded

Wow! I wonder if they have a secret message on any icon 🙂

The UI element textures and images are 400x400 as well. Hard to believe that the scrollbars we use are actually a large image scaled down 😀

Even the glyphs like the arrows, minimize/close/zoom icons, are all PDFs now.

Icon Composer also has a new 256x256 image well 😀

The iTunes icon says "Paul is dead."

The iTunes icon says "Paul is dead."

[Hobofuzz]

Ah hell, I just realized Icon Composer goes up to 512x512, not just 256x256!

No it doesn't 😵

It says "Apple 2006" "iTunes 7", and then some random number

You do realize that was a joke right?

And yes, you're correct, it does actually say that. Crazy how high res these icons are.

 

[snood]

hah, the icon for calculator is larger than the calculator itself.

 

[applesith]

Gotta love the GUI of apple. I always liked their icons.

 

[Jasonbot]

I wonder if devs are goanna make use of this feature.

 

[balamw]

But you didn't view it backwards! I clearly read "Paul is Dead".

Try 'Paul is Dead' in Google or Wikipedia.

i was born in 1987 and even i know about the "paul is dead" conspiracy. in my mind the beatles will always be the greatest music group ever... even though i only have 3 of there albums and dont listen to them regularly.

anyway back to the hi-res icons, i can actually see the calendar for july on the ical icon!

now its hard to tell so i might sound like an idiot. But i was just wondering, does it actually say "blah blah blah" or couldnt you be bothered writing out the whole script of the ad??? and by the way, that is awesome that it says that.
