The Developer Sketchbook for iPhone Apps

Electric Butterfly is now offering a Developer Sketchbook for iPhone Apps for those who like to sketch designs on paper.

I was unable to find one that suited my specific needs, so I created my own. The result is The Developer Sketchbook for iPhone Apps, which includes:

* 100 Pages of 320 x 480 Grids for Portrait User Interface Design
* 100 Pages of 480 x 320 Grids for Landscape User Interface Design
* 200 Pages of Flowcharts for Outlining an App's Navigation
* 100 Pages of Square Grids for App Icon Design
* Dedicated Space on Every Page for Detailed Notes


I was tired of constantly calculating the height measurements of commonly used interface components - over and over again - for every screen I drew on grid paper, so the pre-formatted design templates in my new sketchbook include unique visual markers and lines along the sides. Without interfering with my own sketches, these time-saving guidelines indicate the accurate size and placement of the:

* Status Bar
* Navigation Controller
* Toolbar
* Tab Bar Controller
* Portrait Keyboard
* Landscape Keyboard
* Rounded Corners (App Icon)
* Glossy Bevel (App Icon)
* Horizontal and Vertical Center

The Developer Sketchbook for iPhone Apps is available for $19.99 on Amazon.
