The Adobe XD design team in San Francisco made a stop-motion film for the holidays. “Wishing You A Happy New Year, Whatever Your Resolution” - what a fun play on words. A few Apple products (among others) were used (product IDs after the break).

iPhone 3G Still The Top Camera On Flickr
Slightly updated charts from Flickr, which show Apple’s iPhone 3G (released in 2008) is still the most popular camera amongst Flickr users. The iPhone 4 had a rapid increase in the Popular Cameraphones category, with the 3GS stable right below it.
Also, notice the perfect symmetry in the iPhone 4 and 3GS charts.
First Free Download Shows Up in “iTunes 12 Days of Christmas” App
This morning my iPhone sent me a push notification to let me know that a new download was available in the “iTunes 12 Days of Christmas” app. I immediately realized that was strange, as we previously reported Apple’s annual promotion (for European users) should be running from December 26 until January 6. Why sending out a push notification on December 17?
The download is an EP by Kylie Minogue called “A Christmas Gift”, but as you can guess it seems to be an error on Apple’s end. As you tap on the download button, you’re brought to the iTunes app which returns an error and says the item is not available.
Perhaps “A Christmas Gift” will be the first free album to download on the 26. If not, well – at least the music introduction Apple put into the app this morning is pretty sweet. Read more
Create The Next Unreal Tournament With Unreal Development Kit 3
Attention all developers: The Unreal Development Kit used to create Epic Citadel is now at your disposal thanks to a December 2010 beta. We here at MacStories demand quality titles such as the Legend of Zelda, Metroid, and Mario on our iPads immediately. We also understand that those games probably have nothing to do with said development kit, but we can dream right?
AT&T Changing iPhone 4 Eligibility Dates?
Well this only fuels the hot coals in the Verizon iPhone fire. I have had my iPhone 3GS since June of 2009 and my upgrade eligibility is not up until mid-February, 2011. I know because I check, often. It’s always been that … until today. I just got an email not 30 minutes ago from AT&T and is said that I am now eligible to upgrade to the new Apple iPhone 4. Why 2 months early? Could this indeed mean Verizon could be showing off their iPhone after Christmas? The email is pushing me to get it NAO. Could they be trying to lock people into another 2 year contact before some other carrier gets their hands on Apple’s iPhone? We’ll see soon enough.

Verbs For IM Launches But It’s Not Quite There
It’s not every day that a beautiful, elegant, new app comes out on the iPhone and I’m willing to spend $2.99 to purchase it. When I saw Verbs available in iTunes a few minutes ago, though, I couldn’t help but play Apple’s game and hit the Buy button. I wanted Verbs, for a reason: I know the first version wouldn’t support AIM, the chat system I use on a daily basis in iChat, but I really wanted to see how a nice Google Talk client would fit in my workflow. After all, it’s not every day that a Google Talk client for the iPhone is released, and it’s even got a UI to lay your eyes on.
So I bought Verbs. Is it beautiful to look at? It sure is. Is the ultimate Google Talk experience? More on that below. Read more
Airfoil 4 Streamlines Audio, Video Experience
Apple may have introduced AirPlay, but that doesn’t mean Rogue Amoeba is out of the game. In fact, AirPlay is rather limited unless you enjoy hacking your way out of a paper bag, and by no means can it expand its territory outside of iTunes. If you ever wanted to sit back on the couch and watch CNET TV on your 27” Cinema Display through your iPod’s headphones, you’re out of luck. But with Airfoil, streaming audio anywhere allows one to achieve a state of wireless bliss.
