Winner - faleksandar™

Alex is an absolute pleasure to work with! He is prompt, flexible, and very creative. Our one-on-one project required a lot of back and forth and Alex created great designs very quickly. We did not have a very clear idea of what we wanted but we let Alex know about the ideas we were hoping to showcase; he did a great job creating icons based on abstract information and did so very promptly. He is quick to respond and easy to communicate with. I had a wonderful experience working with Alex I definitely recommend him for a one-on-one project.

How GreenMango started their button or icon journey

Company name

Timer

Overview

This is a countdown timer application for the Mac.

Tell us a bit about who you are and the people you reach

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.

Requirements

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!

Also, look at my company's record on this site. We have awarded a winner in all prior contests so you can design with confidence.
