	Step 1: Never ever ever ever save pixel art as a .jpg. When jpgs compress an image, they screw up your colors and add a couple hundred new colors to your work. And they look plain awful with solid blocks of color, so just say no! Save as .png or .gif! (Don't worry, it happens to everyone once. If you uploaded it to an image hoster and they converted your filetype without you knowing, I apologize in advance!) Edited by iggybork - 23 February 2010 at 11:57pm

	if u wanna do stuff like this its essential to learn about anti aliasing... otherwise its going to be difficult putting in details, and u end up with blocky stuff like those icons at the bottom of the display.... or the clock, which is way to big and in no relation to the original... u can create the illusion of something that small, for example, with just a line of pixels with slightly diffrent brightness, ... aa'ed edit:

	Right off the bat, it feels too wide. And it actually is. The original ipod touch is long and slick. This one is short and chubby. So i would suggest making the outer part taller and thinner. Good luck!
