Designer's life is now even cooler

Most of you probably already know Adobe's online software Kuler. It can be used to easily create, save, share and export colour schemes. Exported schemes are importable for applications in Adobe Creative Suite 2 and 3.

Here's what Adobe Kuler looks like:

You can use this free software at http://kuler.adobe.com

But why am I mentioning it right now? Kuler is old news...
It's because Adobe released updated version of Kuler's desktop AIP that now works with Adobe AIR Beta 3 (formely Apollo). You can download it from Adobe Labs. Don't forget to install Adobe AIR first :)

After you install and run it, take some time to admire how dark and pretty it looks :D

Then, you will probably feel dissapointed because you cannot create new sets in it, only browse through those already published.

But fear not! Adobe has found the way to swetten things.
Go to Adobe Illustrator, choose Window -> Adobe Labs -> kuler, and you will find yourself enjoying kuler panel:

Isn't it kul? :)
