Show HN: Pixate - Themeable, scalable, beautiful buttons for iOS

Why is the drop shadow at an angle other than straight down? It stands out like a sore thumb within the rest of iOS and makes the button design look sloppy. I appreciate the usefulness of a button class like this but the default design just doesn't look polished.

It's like bootstrap for iOS, kinda cool because lets be honest, the default Round Rect is UGLY.<p>I like how it's vector, that helps keep bundles small (instead of a bunch of custom button PNGs I usually have to have in there)<p>I had exactly this idea for a while I had not gotten around to implementing it, my plan was to make it open source.

This is extremely cool. One of the things I find lacking about Cocoa Touch is the lack of native, powerful customization of the default UI elements. Sure, iOS5 added the appearance APIs, but I still find them lackluster. I look forward to playing with this thing.

This breaks consistency.

Will this work fine with AutoLayout and constraints?

Anxious to see this component set evolve, looks really useful for apps that need their own look.

Too bad it's iOS &#62;= 5 only.. That basically makes this unusable for me.

I love the domain name. Itd be a classic name for any design related startup or service
