Mine is the one of vConqr http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewSoftware?id=290649401&mt=8 Because it has a groovy shape and catches your attention while changing from the original square shape that most icons are
(I added the icons of appshopper.com, but keep in mind, that these are not the icons displayed on you homescreen and my ratings belongs to the homescreen icons!) 1. Goalkeep 2. Classics 3. ShoppingList (the green/white one) 4. MindMaker
@ Oliver and NotYou... Could you guys embed the images for these icons into your posts, using the images from AppShopper.com, so that we can see them — like so: GoalKeep: Evernote:
If you're interested in icon design, there was a great post a few weeks back by Gedeon Maheux of the Iconfactory. They are responsible for these: [app]Twitterrific[/app] [app]Twitterrific Premium[/app] [app]Frenzic[/app].
Regarding the icon on the first post, WC Pool has an icon very similar- a Pool ball as the pic, with a black background to make it stand out from all the square icons.
Here's one I did for someone for an as-yet un-released app... Bigger 512x512 version here if you want to see it: http://www.nothowitlooks.com/assorted/iconBIG.jpg
Best: Microsoft Seadragon, and iPhysics lite. Worst: BoD 2 and all the factory install app icons(exception; Youtube). Sorry, technologically inept, don't know how to embed pics.
Top list... 5. Scoops 6. Missile Command 7... Fieldrunners, Rolando, Fastlane, Chopper, Dr. Awesome, Plateau Worst Icons: 1. iPoints 2. Regenradar 3. teXXas
4. German English Dictionary (the one with the ugly books on it) 5. Motion X Poker 6. Snail Mail 7. Sim City Now that's great... you can't have more than 4 images in one post...
I don't need an icon which just tells me what's written under the icon. The same goes for Sim City and Spore.
