This is the second iPod I've created. The first can be found here.

The first iPod was okay I suppose, but there has since been a new release, or "generation" of iPods, so I thought I'd make one of the new ones.

Everything was created digitally EXCEPT for the album art I used for the screen. NOTHING was copied, it was all created from scratch in Photoshop CS2, and no tutorials were used whatsoever. It took about 3 hours total, but if I made it again it would probably take half that. I don't know if I will make a new tutorial to create this one, especially not any time soon, it depends on the response (if any) I get. Here is the reference picture.

Feedback appreciated.

And specifically, if someone could tell me what font was used for both the screen and the text on the actual wheel itself.

Here it be:


UPDATE:

I made a Nano:

Go for it. I don't have any rights to color usage.

hehe, nice! but it too tall, makes it look deformed or something

[sq3r]

Compare it to the reference picture; it's the exact same height.

[goaliemike]

Good job, just for the nano's id make the front one slightly taller by 2-3 pixels, since your refrence pic from apple is also a photoshop version ;P
