The New Adobe CS3 Suite Icons Were Announced…

…and boy are they boring and utterly worthless.

Hideous. I’m surprised Adobe stooped to this after the relatively well-designed CS and CS2 logos.

On a side note, the Office 2007 icons are pretty neat, in my opinion. Although the icons of the Adobe family have a similar style, they lack a graphical aid to identify the product. Though “Ai”, “Ps” and “Br” may be relatively straight-forward, what the heck is the abbreviation for Premiere, Encore, Audition, Acrobat and Stock Photos?
I know designers that use this on a daily basis and they will not be happy. I’ll bet most users will replace the icons with the CS2 set.

Makes me want to go Iconoclast!
