Timer
This is a countdown timer application for the Mac.
People who need a timer for their computer. They may use this to keep time on any task. For example, I am taking a practice test and I have 30 minutes to complete it, or I need to remember to turn off the stove in 5 minutes, etc. It's a countdown timer. It plays a sound and flashes when time expires to let the user know time has expired.
I need an icon for a countdown timer that we are building for the Mac. I have attached a photo of the application so that you can get an idea of what the app is, but I don't need the icon to look just like the app or anything like that. Think simple and think of timers.
The icon should be very sexy. This icon is NOT for the iphone, so it should not be an iphone style icon. This is a Mac computer application icon.
The icon will need to work at sizes ranging from 512x512 all the way down to 16x16.
The finished product will need to include a photoshop or illustrator file that can be used to recreate the icon image file.
Keep in mind, this is not a stopwatch. This is a countdown timer, and there is a big difference.
I look forward to your designs!
