Often a new and original icon works much worse than a standard and conventional one. But our industry does not stand still – new devices with new interfaces come into light and it changes the ways of operating such devices. It happens rather slowly but some trends are quite obvious. Icons ceased being small Long ago, icons were very small, and pixels were very large. Icon size 16!16 was the standard, and sometimes it was necessary to draw icons size 12!12 or even tiddlers size 8!8 pixels. Icon design was sometimes called “digital miniature.” Icons size 32!32 were considered large and time consuming. Now everything has changed – the resolution and screen size increased. It takes an extra effort to see a small icon and clicking such icons with a pointer or finger became unrealistic (exceptions are Windows Mobile and stylus-equipped devices). Icons became large. Extremely large. Right now the maximum size of icons in Mac OS X is 512!512 px. Initially, it was not clear – why having such large icons? But with the screen resolution above 300 dpi, it became clear that larger icons are demanded.

In today’s industry no one cares whether you match pixels or lines. More often, icons are created in 3d-editors, and sometimes even using real photographs. Very high detail Designers used to have a problem: how do we place objects to be depicted into small squares yet maintaining realism, proper perspectives, and readability? As a rule, an icon pictures not more than three objects with clear features identifying their attributes.
