I don't know how many of you might have seen this. It is an application to test and brainstorm color combinations and such. It is a completely free application which runs through Adobe AIR.

Nice. Sort of Adobe Kuler copy?

How does one run an AIR application?

You have to install Adobe Air on your computer.

It's free.

I have..

You should just be able to double click the .air file or desktop icon (if it created it)

Nope. Nothin

AIR 1.5 installed
Hmm - something is a bit flakey here

OK fixed..
Adobe installer was not registering the application as the handler for .air
Even on a second Vista system, the problem occurred. Air bug

Adobe Air does not even appear in the 'Open With' dialog.
So, I needed to do this manually.
Double-Click .AIR file - 'Windows cannot open this file' box displays, choose 'Select a program from the list...."
Because Adobe Air does not appear, click 'Browse' and find
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Adobe AIR\Versions\1.0\Adobe AIR Application Installer.exe.

Put a tick in the 'Always use the selected program....' box, and your done.
