Digital Delusions of Anthony Hearsey
Photo manipulation, we’re talking done really well, is a skill unto itself. With the proliferation of Photoshop use, the average viewer seems to take manipulated photos for granted these days. Photo manipulation software is literally everywhere, including on cheap or even free apps on phones in people’s pockets. But the upper crust of Photoshop users…

With the latest Apple releases, so too will come the flood of YouTube videos of folks “testing” the new devices in all sorts of precarious scenarios (submerging your new iPhone in a vat of soda, then freezing it for 12 hours, anyone?).

With so many apps out there, icon design is something we increasingly take for granted. Some are certainly much better than others, and these, by Netherlands-based designer Julian Burford, fall into that category. The 3D perspective and uniformity among these hypothetical food product icons is great, especially while meeting Apple’s icon guidelines. Via julianburford.nl
