Quicktime's icon development



Quicktime time.

To some degree, at least in the creative world dominated by Apple, a proper and appropriate claim to the Q has been made. It's been a long time coming. The fact that the arrow points down in no way diminishes the strength of the concept. That's how Qs are built. And that's how Quicktime has developed.

As Armin points out, this is where Quicktime was meant to be. Snow Leopard is 'the world's most advanced operating system finely tuned'. This is the Quicktime icon finely tuned and fully realised in the context of Apple's overall development. This is a solid and compelling ground zero for a great piece of software.

Where to next? Not only for Quicktime but for Apple and all its inspired brilliance so far. I revel in Apple's success.
