How to share your Creative Cloud Folder

For me it is most important to have control over sharing my assets. I am a digital artist and my primary applications are Adobe Creative Cloud Apps. No surprise that I prefer to store and share my current files I am working with using Creative Cloud. I am very happy with all options to have control over my shared assets and permissions.

1: Click > View on Web

2: Click on a folder you want to share

3: Share > Send Link

3: Creative Cloud created your public link you can share with anyone you want to.

4: Type the email address of the person you want to share your link with

5: Click on Advanced Options

All options are enabled by default but you can choose to disable the options.

Allow Downloads > allows to download file
Allow Comments > allows to add comments
Allow to use of Extract > allows to extract image info and assets (available only when sharing a Photoshop (.psd) file )

P.S. To make you folder private again simply click on Remove Public Link

App, App Review, Tip of The Day

The Best app for relaxation

July 21, 2015 victoriapavlov Leave a comment

Relax Melodies by Ipnos Soft is the best FREE app for your sleep , yoga .meditation or just relaxation time. It’s available for your iPad, Phone, or Computer. I have been using this app at least 3 years and could not be happier.
For free the app gives you 50 high quality sounds:

River
Ocean
Winds
Birds
Piano
Night
Zen
Slow Waves
Rainy Day
Underwater
Cat Purring

…and many more!

I can mix up to 10 sounds together ( and I can control the volume of each sound individually! ), save, name and sort them for feature easy setup. During the night time I prefer to use app’s timer. In addition to all the great features above I have a clock with many beautiful screen designs along with an alarm system.

And the best feature of the app is background support so you can use ANY of your other apps on your device while this plays!

My personal preference to easily fall asleep is the Rainy Day sound.
For yoga and meditation I prefer the Waterfall sound.
I LOVE mixing Ocean and Rainy Day sound together during my retouching or painting work.

If you want more than the 50 included sounds along with other extra options you can consider Relax Melodies Premium HD.
iPad price is $2.99
iPhone price is $0.99
For Mac price is $4.99
