Adobe CS3 SDK's available, more to come

Adobe has released Creative Suite 3 for the masses, which means their attention can now turn to the SDKs for the developers in the audience (that's: Software Development Kit for the rest of us). After all, we can't design by built-in filters and plugins alone, can we? Mark Niemann-Ross, Adobe's Developer Evangelist, has announced on his Adobe Blog that some of the SDKs are in fact ready and poppin' fresh from the oven. Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, InDesign (including Server) and four more are already available, with SDKs for the rest of their CS3 products on the way. You can keep an eye on Mark's post for updates as new kits become available, or simply check out Adobe's Developer Center as well.

Adobe Creative Suite 3 unboxing video


Creative Suite 3 Web Premium arrived, and boy is it packing a punch. Before we get to dissecting the intricacies of this major upgrade, we thought it would be fun to step it up a notch in the 'I got a new [thing]' space on the internets with an unboxing video. Yep - the days of unboxing pictures are numbered, as video is the inarguable craze these days. Granted, CS3 isn't quite as hot as some new imported gadget, but you can consider this a sort of test run with the format.

We will of course have more on CS3 once it's actually installed, so enjoy the unboxing video for now, and let us know what you think.

This marks the first occasion (since Photoshop 5.0 Limited Edition?) in which more than one version of Photoshop will be made available, with the new version targeted at individuals in the fields of video, architecture, engineering, medicine, and science.

Graveyard Shift - zombie-busting Time Waster

With Halloween fast approaching, it's a great time to get in some practice defending your territory against zombies. In Graveyard Shift, you take aim at zombies and other creepy-crawlies, blasting them into splatters of cartoony green guts. It's a casual first-person shooter, and it's very easy to get the hang of - use the mouse to aim, click to fire. Graveyard Shift has at least 15 levels, and it might even have some secret stages I haven't unlocked yet. They key to getting good at Graveyard Shift is learning to use ...
