The developers of Sparrow, a superb mail client, are releasing their iOS app soon - but what should the icon look like? They can't decide and so went to Dribble to get feedback. There are some awesome designs here, but which is your favourite?

A clean and crisp user interface element that would work in a variety of situations. I like the brushed metal and the way the different textures work together.

Posted in Interface → iPhone AppI love the illustrative style of these icons and the interesting use of a unique colour palette. They all fit together with ease, but are distinct unique from every other icon set.

An excellent joystick element for an iPhone game that simply oozes with detail. The crisp lines and touchable textures help to make this joystick work visually, whether it works practically on the iPhone is another matter entirely.

A solid interface for an iPhone app that uses a cliche wooden texture but still retains a sense of simplicity and clarity. I like the Facebook and Twitter buttons, the colours immediately grab your attention.

A solid icon for an iPhone app that makes good use of textures. I like the wood frame and the attention this designer has given to detail. The purpose of the app isn't entirely clear, but it'd look great on your home screen nonetheless.

A great interface design for an iPhone app that takes a very different approach to the one taken by the majority. I like the focus on typography and texture, the custom buttons and unique styling help this app to stand out.

A simple, but effective, interface element that just works. It could be even more effective if there was a little more texture on the control itself. I like the faded lights around the outside of the knob.

An indescribably gorgeous replication of a physical rocker switch, made by someone who clearly values diligence and attention to detail. I love the way the lighting has been created, and the use of texture to add depth to the design.
