Photoshop Vs Fireworks

It's a challenge to say anything about it, but i will dare to do it.

I’ve been developing websites for more than 4 years. No one really used image editing programs back then.

When it came time to start using a program to make web graphics, I chose Fireworks because it’s made specifically for web graphics.

Photoshop’s steep learning and often clumsy UI has always been a problem for me. Most of the features are things I would never use for a website.

Fireworks, on the other hand, is what I’ve used since it came out, and that’s only because I used Dreamweaver, which is really what introduced me to it.

As you said in the article, Photoshop is for, well, photos. It’s a full-blown image editor. Fireworks, while it does have the ability to edit images, is all about the web.

My vote goes to Fireworks, hands down.



Comparing Photoshop with Fireworks is a little like comparing apples and oranges. Both are delicious but are different in a number of ways.
Photoshop is the bitmap editor, and was designed for artists working on images for print. Fireworks is the top of the line, software for creating images for the Web.
Fireworks is vector based, so it actually has more in common with Illustrator than Photoshop. If you are comfortable with vectors, you'll love it.

Cheers!

What is JQuery?

It's a JavaScript library that makes it easy to create wonderful web effects in just a few lines of code.

“jQuery is a JavaScript library that takes this motto to heart: Writing JavaScript code should be fun. jQuery achieves this goal by taking common, repetitive, tasks, stripping out all the unnecessary markup, and leaving them short, smart and understandable.”

May be you are thinking…Why I would need another JavaScript library? Just give a try and you will see how simple and powerful it is.

Dreamweaver template not updating the pages

I just upgraded from an old version of Dreamweaver to CS4 Dreamweaver. Now, when I change an image on a template, pages made using that template don't update automatically. Anyone got an idea what I can do to fix this?
