Yes, At Adobe MAX 2009 Adobe announced a beta of Adobe® Flash® Professional CS5 including a Packager for iPhone would be made available on Adobe Labs. But Adobe has changed plans regarding this beta and no longer releasing a public beta of Flash Professional CS5. This change of plan was made in order to ensure the earliest possible delivery of the final software to the large number of designers and developers interested in Flash Professional CS5 and the included Packager for iPhone.

What should we expect from brand new Flash CS5?

Adobe’s site listed by:

  1. *  Packager for iPhone — Publish ActionScript 3® projects in Adobe Flash Professional to run as applications for iPhone.
  2. * New text capabilities via the Text Layout Framework (TLF) — Get unprecedented text control and creativity with projects created in Flash. Advanced styling and layout, including right to left text, columns, and threaded text blocks, let you work with text in Flash like never before.
  3. * XML based FLA files — Manage and modify project assets using source control systems and enable teams to easily collaborate on files.
  4. * Code Snippets panel — Choose prebuilt code that can be injected into projects to increase interactivity and also reduce the ActionScript 3 learning curve.
  5. * Flash Builder™ integration — Use Adobe Flash Builder software as your ActionScript editor within projects in Flash.
  6. * Improved ActionScript editor — Improve productivity with custom class code hinting and completion.

So like Adobe Air that we create on flash software, Now we can create iPhone apps with flash cs5, I hope we could get it sooner and cheaper.

Getting inspired from nature

As you can see the title of this post is present itself, Most of the time great innovations designed by what god made before, the nature. And human always loved the nature and if you make something that follow the rules of nature, it will be great product and you will have big fat success on creating that.

Let me show you small example about getting inspired from nature in internet, We always want to know what happening around us, Even when we meet each other we might say, What’s up or something similar. Twitter made on this fact. People always seeking about news, But newspaper give you news about important events and important people. You may want to hear about ur cousins news, What they do, Clearly you can not find such of news in Washington Post. You must follow that news with following your related in Twitter.

But how we can produce something with idea from nature?

There is no rules for following about getting idea from nature, But I made small to dos list of how you can do it

  1. First you need to clear your mind from related products, for example if you are producing a website in industry field you do not have to follow or imagine what you saw in similar websites. Clear your mind of what you saw, You can always follow the trends but for now just forget about it.
  2. You must get into the natural places not urban city or town, Get some rest in jungle, garden or even park.
  3. Try to imagine what is similar things in nature to your future product, If it’s a cellphone you are designing, You may want to list:human body because Cellphone is the part of human body and people will carry it with themselves all the time, So it must be something not that heavy and it must have a unity with human body. So maybe you will end up with iPhone since this cellphone has great unity and connection to the human .
  4. Try to create the look and feel by seeing textures in natural places, I always love the texture of leafs it’s mysterious. Or Sky has a great texture, most the time it depend on what you are going to create .
  5. Find your way to connect nature to your product, Human mind is so creative and it can give you wonderful result, You just need to give it a try and making your own list for getting idea from nature.

Last word

Free yourself of all bound around you and your work and try to get into the nature, Because you are came from it, And now you live in a place that is so fake! the city.
