Hello
My friend Urban (ui.beam) has done the graphics for a Christmas application for Apple for kids I propose we take a look at

If you have iPad och iPhone I think you should try it, especially if you have kids who like christmas. I think the graphics are very good. What do you think? I don't think I can run it since I don't have an Apple computer but maybe you do? I note that there are many people who can do graphics while not many know how to implement a design / layout with a programmed layoutmanager or CSS as in the web case. I'm still learning how to align graphic component with no tables and CSS instead. It's actually quite practical and I think CSS is much better than Javascript since CSS responds much quicker and can be interactive while Javascript can give you a flash of unstyled content that needs fixing with CSS.
I believe for Apple the implementation language is Objective-C which to me is an Apple lock-in ie to port it you have to rewrite all software to another environment such as MS XNA or likewise and that is something that should be done at the same time for all platforms. I mean if you're going to make both a Windows version and an Apple version then you should develop for multiple platforms at the same time. Do you agree? Apple is basically a BSD and the scenario appears to be that Apple owns Objective-C, Microsoft owns C#, Google owns python, Oracle owns Java and they all want to lock you to their platforms and in Aplpe's case they're selling you...hardware.
Cheers \n
