Axure iPhone UI elements widget / library download
I’ve created a Axure iPhone widget library and you can download it below. The bulk of the work on this library was done one night while I was up late from the pure pain and agony caused by eating a Taco Tico taco – it was just one taco, and I wanted bragging rights. Taco Tico is a Louisville fast food Mexican joint, equivalent to the White Castle circa 1980. The important thing I learned that night, don’t eat things you think are dangerous. It sounds easier than it is. I never have problems eating things like an electric knife or a porcupine, but, sometimes it gets a little hard. I knew the taco was a risk, but I still ate it. I’m a risk taker. Maybe a good fall-back is if I think it’s risky, only eat part of it. Either way, I hope I never get sick like that again.
Anyway, I’ve been prototyping iPhone applications, and I really want to be able to do it in Axure; this will let me turn over the prototype stakeholders in a web browser. Unfortunately, I couldn’t find any existing iPhone UI widgets that did do a good job of covering the common iPhone UI elements. Bingo, add Taco Tico, Axure, an iPhone and the result, a iPhone UI element library.
First, I want to point to teehan+lax, the creators of the ‘iPhone_GUI_3_0.psd’ that I used for a large part of this widget. I also used Yahoo! UI elements and then created a few of them myself.
The aim is to create a library of common iPhone User Interface patterns for me to use, and sharing is the right thing to do – unless it’s a Taco Tico taco.
You can reach me, Paul, at Paul.Sizemore /at/ Gmail.com, but I would stay away from Taco Tico.

Your pain, is our pleasure. Thank you! Also, I went to the Taco Tico site, and can’t get that damn song out of my head.

Quick question, how did you make the backgrounds on these widgets transparent so cleanly? Photoshop? Are they PNG files?

The iPhone is a bit large. Can you recommend resize parameters to size it down smaller, yet still to scale?
