Keynote '11 Application Icon Redesign
By Evan Miller
February 5, 2011
For its Keynote '09 application, Apple designed what must be the world's worst application icon:
Ninety percent of people fear public speaking more than they fear sharks, snakes, scorpions, spiders, or their thesis advisor. I look at this podium icon and am overwhelmed with a sense of dread, embarrassment, and impending disaster.
As a service to mankind/Apple, I've taken the liberty of redesigning the Keynote icon for the next iteration of the product. I have attempted to eliminate the podium imagery while retaining the underlying theme of visceral fear. Enjoy.
