Hello,

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience designing an iPhone application user interface and would know the ins and outs of building proper graphics files.

We've been experiencing odd shifts in color when we view our graphics on the iPhone. They get washed out, for the most part.

We're building the graphics in Photoshop CS3, 160ppi, RGB/8, and saving them out as a non-interlaced PNG. We're not using the Save for Web & Devices option, we're just using Save As.

Any pointers, suggestions or places on the web that would fill me in on the proper way to build iPhone graphics for native applications? I've googled as much as I can google, and have come up pretty much empty. I've seen some rumblings of people saying exporting PNG out of Photoshop shifts colors sometimes, but from what I've read they are referring to CS2.

Whenever someone has issues with color, the first thing I ask is whether they are working in a properly color-managed workflow, including a correctly calibrated monitor.

If you are serious about developing for the iPhone, I seriously suggest you join the ADC. Apple has a separate iPhone dev center that can probably help with this any other problems.

Thanks for the info. Yeah designing for an iPhone app is a first time thing for me, so I'm going into this medium fairly blind. I would agree that I'm probably just not set up right. I will look into that. The programmer I'm working with is a part of ADC, but said that he didn't see anything in their documentation that would help with that issue. I would like to take a look for myself though.
