update link to illustrator 2017 sdk on https://www.adobe.com/devnet/illustrator/sdk.htmlThe move from https://www.adobe.com/devnet/illustrator/sdk.html 
 to https://console.adobe.io/downloads/ai left behind a broken link to the 2017 sdk.
 Easiest thing to do would be to update the 2017 sdk link on the old devnet page.1 voteWe are moving away from devnet to the Adobe io site. Moving forward that will the place to get all of Adobe SDK. 
 We also have an early access program for our plugin partners. You may join our prerelease site you will get SDK builds way before we release it on public facing pages.

User Guide Correction - Broken LinksThe section of the user guide called Painting > Gradients is full of nothing but broken links. https://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/using/gradients.html 
 Your links all just forward to http://create.adobe.com/ and http://tv.adobe.com/vi+f1586v1019
 which isn't helpful at all if you're trying to read the user guide in any meaningful way. Of course I can google ways to use the gradient tools but I came to you for the definitive "adobe prescribed" version of information as a way to prepare for your ACE exams. I know I'm not the only one who does this to bone up so if someone could help fix broken links it would…1 vote

Can't save color themes even when signed inI'm trying to save a color theme but when I mouse over "Save" it says "You must sign to save color themes" even though I am already signed in according to the Help drop down menu. As a result I can't save any color themes. I'm using the 1 week trial version of Adobe Illustrator called Adobe Illustrator CC Tryout 2017.1.0 Release. 1 vote
