Now this has some excellent potential for improving our work with designers: the charming people over at Mercury Intermedia have released a set of iPhone UI vector elements for your Illustrator-using pleasure!
Rather than cry over the lack of good vector elements, we took it upon ourselves to recreate a large portion of the iPhone’s UI elements so we would have them available for future projects. Obviously, we aren’t telling you all of this just to wave it in your face and tell you we have fancy tools that you don’t. Because we care so much about our fellow iPhone developers, we are making our vector files available to you today. (I think I just made myself throw up a little.)
And people say we have attitude. Ha! This Rusty fellow seems like he’d be excellent company indeed for a drink or twenty. But yes, the file is well worth the download. Also note references to
iPhone GUI PSD (Photoshop)
Ultimate iPhone Stencil (OmniGraffle)
