    Nice details! What about making the "off" switch in same style as "on" is? (with red background and a dark red cross on top of it)

    Yeah, that was my initial direction actually. I felt that it was a little overpowering and seemed more like an error state than an off state. I also tried making the off icon a muted grey, but it seemed too subtle.

    That's some slick switches right there Jason, great job!

    A UI friend pointed out the classic problem of "label shows state" vs. "label shows possibility" with these sorts of elements. Totally agreed and I should have pointed out that these are clearer when viewed in context: http://d.pr/Tj05

    Love the look. So, these are separate? Not an on/off state of the same switch? Are they more of a yes/no button in this use?

    Thanks everyone.

    Joel - they're basically a glorified checkbox. Here's a first pass at wiring up the interaction: http://goo.gl/JydQS

    This makes for a drop-dead gorgeous UI. Not to mention how fun it is to try out. Great work, Jason.

    I can see what you mean about it looking somewhat like an error, but the two different element styles were not really doing it for me.

    Love the style, but I'd like to see how the switch background transitions from green to silver during a slide. In the demo it sort of 'flicks' from one to the other, so I don't get the impression it's the same switch in either state?

    Great rebound, Tait - I added my comments to your shot's page.

    For the record Jason, I agree with your conclusion and concur that it works more effectively for what you were wanting to accomplish when viewed in context.

    Yeah, I'm going to agree with Jason. Tait's version is lovely, but in context I think Jason's works. To me, Jason's negative state says "not enabled", while Tait's say "disabled"... if that makes sense to anyone :)

    Really love it! How do you create the metallic button effect?

    Very similar to something I did a few months ago
    here
    But I went for a more subtle metal effect.

    Also, smaller version

    Thats what I'm talking about! Very nice pixel perfect and intuitive UX for touch screen devices.

    Thanks again everyone.

    Alex - the metallic buttons are just circles with angle gradients (using a mix of various greys at the color stops).
