If you've already downloaded the latest iPhone 1.1.3 software update, then you know you can bookmark your favorite sites on your iPhone/iPod Touch's home screen.  Unfortunately, since this is a still a new feature, most site owners are not sure how to create those glossy web clips that appear when you bookmark a site on the iPhone's homepage. Lucky for you, I came across Apple's iPhone Dev Center where they've posted step-by-step instructions on how to do this. Those familiar with favicons should have no problem creating an iPhone web clip, since the process is very similar.

If you're a site owner, I recommend you take a few minutes to create a web clip for your site. It's extremely easy to do, and your visitors will love your for it. Here's how to get started:

• Open your image editing program, such as Photoshop, and create an image that's 57 x 57 pixels. Safari will crop larger images, so you can create one slightly larger if you want.  
• Save the icon in your computer as an 8-bit PNG file, and name it "apple-touch-icon.png."
• Upload the image to your site's root directory, just like you would save a favicon image.
• Now open up your site on your iPhone/iPod Touch, tap the plus sign at the bottom of the screen, and select 'Add to Home Screen.' Rename site if necessary. 
• Hit the home button, and admire your new shiny icon.

Now wasn't that simple? Let me know if you have any questions in the comments below.
