    All apps I found in this periodic table (their color might not match):

     -Fresco

     -Behance

     -Captivate

     -Scout

     -Premiere Pro

     -PageMaker (and maybe PageMill, not sure tho since I haven't seen its icon)

     -ColdFusion (Builder)

     -FrameMaker (Publishing Server)

     -Substance 3D Modeler

     -Lightroom

     -Edge Reflow

     -SpeedGrade (and Substance 3D Stager)

     -Premiere Rush

     -Edge Code

     -RoboHelp

     -Substance 3D Painter (and the fan-made app Periodic Table)

     -Substance 3D Designer

     -Audition

     -Edge Inspect

     -Flash (Professional)

     -SoundBooth

     -Bridge

     -Technical Communication Suite

     

    Seems like Adobe really wants to recreate the periodic table of elements with their own respective programs...

    Is this just a joke?

    The only time that Chemistry and I ever got along was when I met my wife.

    Other than that? Never. My first chemistry experiment in high school we were supposed to team up and make a moisturizing cream compound. After the only two girls in the class were trying their's on, mine and my lab partners had proceeded to eat through the beaker and about two inches of the lab table. Those girls ran out of the room.

    Little did I know that the majority of my working career would be based around chemical compounds of different types of aggregates.

    GREAT JOB on the Adobe Periodic Table.

    Same here, I prefer to let others handle chemistry. It was stuff I had to do back then to get that diploma.

    All my chemistry experiences were in school or those chemistry kits they sold at hobby shops. I think the only thing I created by mixing two compounds was --- ink.

    I thought that Adobe-Periodic table was just cool graphics. I don't know or care enough to pick it apart for not having the proper numbers.

      I had to log in to update some account information and saw this.

      Wonderful!

      As a Chemist I can only suggest that Adobe add version numbers where Atomic Numbers go in their symbols, and maybe the year of release where the Atomic Weight goes, to complete the tribute to The Periodic Table.

      That is, if a Periodic Table Tribute was what they had in mind with the Logos.  The table posted lacks those crucial things and no Periodic Table is of much use without them

      It's not from Adobe, but from a designer on Twitter, @chizutodesign  It's not for sale nor is it meant to be a real reference chart.

        But if you were the in-house graphic designer for a large drug company, it would be a very cool chart to have on your wall.

        Well, they already have Photoshop and Premiere Elements...a table of two. I'm sure a good agency could make something of that

          Didn't we all discuss the move to elemental style app icons when Adobe decided to move in that direction a while back?  We accepted it as a deliberate trend, but I don't remember if we worked out a rationale other than it looks pretty cool.

          7 years later, and I still cannot figure out why Acrobat is different. Not that it bothers me, but I just have that question.

          How is this an Adobe Periodic Table? All I see that could be Adobe is perhaps Audition, Lightroom, Premiere, Bridge and Behance? I don't get the rest of them?

            The design humor is to imagine what it would be like if Adobe published a table of Elements.

            Au is not for Audition, but the symbol for Gold.

              Ah, I know Au is for gold in the real Periodic Table was trying to find an 'Adobe' tie-in. Didn't get it at first. Thanks for the explanation ;-)
