Welcome to Useful Mac →

Hello Prettify readers! As you’ve no doubt noticed, Prettify has been languishing for many months and years now, as the customization scene on OS X dried up a bit. I’ve still tried to find amazing wallpapers and icons but it has been harder and harder, especially as the Retina age began. Unfortunately, this means it’s time to retire Prettify.

But wait! There’s good news!

I’ve started a new site called Useful Mac. I plan to post useful links to apps, reviews, detailed information about workflows and all that fun stuff. In addition, I plan to post as many awesome wallpapers and icons as I can find. They won’t be as regular as Prettify was back in the day, but I’m going to do my best.

So if you’re still up for good customization content, head over to Useful Mac and follow that blog. My goal is to help you make your Mac prettier, more powerful and more useful every day. Thanks again for all of your support. Hope to see you over there!

Cube Hot, Electric and Aqua by Marc Edwards

Beautiful cubic walls for your iPhone 5. Available in three colors: Hot, Electric and Aqua. They all look terrific on the new display (and they look amazing on an iPhone 4/4S as well!).

Redlands by Timothy J. Reynolds

Transport your new iPhone 5 to the surface of Mars. Also includes iPad and desktop versions, all Retina.

CUBEN Space Titan by Simon C Page

Beautiful, colorful geometric wallpapers for your new Retina iPad. Even better, you can tile these and they work pretty nicely on your Retina MacBook Pro. Includes many other variations to boot.

Jaune by mariesturges

Bright, sharp and colorful. A bit of a nautical theme never hurt anyone. iPad version available as well. (Submitted by Zackary Corbett.)
