Apple is gearing up to launch the iPad 3 tomorrow (or iPad HD) and it is all but confirmed that the new display is going to be a huge one in terms of resolution.
The release of a retina screen will pose a problem that was seen when the iPhone 4 was released. Apps needed to include high resolution graphics so they won’t look blurry on the device.
At App Design Vault, we have decided to pre-empt the situation and released a Photoshop design template that is a massive 2048×1536 pixels in the resolution.
Click here to see exactly how large it is.
The best part is that you can now download the template for free here. It is time to start future proofing your apps so they can retain their crisp look on the iPad.
People have called us crazy to give this away as a free download. We don’t care, we just want to get this into the hands of as many people as possible.
Please prove them wrong by doing this..

Thank you, I can’t wait for the iPad 3 to be released. I’m sure you can’t wait too.

To web designers, if all rumors are true about the features of the coming iPad3, the gadget’s resolution will call for great graphics, which “may” overrule what we are used to web templates. Hello to more optimization (if needed) techniques. Gosh. LOL.
The new iPad’s resolution is 264ppi so anybody wishing to use this for actual app graphics should note that the 72ppi used in this PSD will not suffice. The PSD does not include a landscape version of the iPad, nor is the image of the iPad itself supplied.
