For those of us who just live for “what’s coming next,” you might have fun peeking at Adobe’s new icon and color branding for their applications. John Nack posted a fun piece, including a color wheel of icons, perhaps as a holiday treat to us all. Apparently, gone are the butterflies and pastels. Now we’ve got a periodic table of elements! It’s a cool idea, but the color scheme is mysterious (why is InDesign magenta and Illustrator orange?) and it may take more brain work to tell what is what when more than one application is running.
