Bjango Actions 2.0
I love creating icons and icon sets. There’s just something so fun about creating icons that represent applications and ideas. I’m mainly create icons for websites or for other designers to use. However, many designers create icons for mobile apps, such as those you would find on an iPhone or an iPad. Having a preset framework to set up your icon development can help you to create icons quicker and easier. That’s where the free Photoshop file of the week comes in. Bjango actions 2.0 is a set of Photoshop actions that help you to develop icon grids easier. This will speed up your icon development inside of Photoshop.
These Bjango Actions by Marc Edwards set up all the guides you need to be able to create beautiful icons for iOS 7. This is an update to his previous version. In the new version he adds an iPhone icon template action, and iPad icon template action, as well as many scaling actions for your icons. There are also new and improved iPhone and iPad document actions. Mark also improve the names of many of his actions, in order to make them easier to understand as to what they are.
All of his icon grid guides are two pixels wide. There are also actions included for 512 pixels by 512 pixels and 1024 pixels by 1024 pixel documents. There are all kinds of actions available for streamlining your icon development workflow. Marc uses these himself, so it’s a good idea to integrate workflow created by someone who actually creates icons for a living.

These Bjango actions are highly useful, and took a lot of work to create. Mark could’ve kept these actions and workflows to himself to make his own workflow easier. However, he is generous enough to share this with you for free. If you end up using these, you should show marked some appreciation by following him on social media, or helping to promote his portfolio.
