Well, as a note, at least looking at them to compare some of the button 
graphics to those that I created, I did end up with 4000+ graphics to evaluate. 
But your reply points out something.

On iOS, Apple does a great job at giving us many of the standard button 
controls in many cases except where we want to drag out a UIButton and make 
them ourselves.  There is still the "make your own button and get a rounded 
rect" approach, not a "here is your button and all the nice graphics to go with 
it".

Is there a resource that's in a code or graphics lib where we can reference 
approved button graphics so that we can use them in our own products for Apple 
products?

If there isn't, please let me know and I'll post some "pretty close to" 
compliant AI, PS and PNG files so that people don't have to hunt around for 
basic button graphics.

If there's something stupidly simply that I don't know, please tell me.

Thanks.
