Microsoft Expression Interactive Designer for download

We've just released the first publicly available version of Expression Interactive Designer, formerly code named Sparkle. This Customer Technology Preview (CTP) finally gives designers and developers worldwide the chance to play with a real WinFX application, a design tool that's going to help shape the look of Windows applications over the next decade. First announced at PDC2005 in Las Vegas, you can get it yourself now! The Expression website has new videos to watch and tutorials to download and try and there's also a new CTP of Expression Graphic Designer, with a much improved XAML exporter. All of these tools work with the January CTP of WinFX. This is the first in a cycle of CTPs for Interactive Designer, so please do log your feedback in the public newsgroup, as your feedback will help shape the final release of the product.
