[thelist] I hate Fireworks

[Bob Boisvert]

Janet,

If your not sure about Fireworks, you can purchase the Macromedia Fireworks
Training from the source, this is what I did before I purchased the Ultradev
4 / Fireworks 4 studio.

Janet,

Do you have a manual to look through?  If (for whatever reason) you don't,
then at least go through the tutorial that comes with the install.

But, to answer your question: In respect to how each program handles the
exporting of Web graphics - no, in my opinion there isn't much difference.
I haven't used PSP for a few versions, but the way Fireworks handles
exporting images for web use is pretty standard.  I suppose if you're
splitting hairs one could say it's closer to PhotoShop than PSP.

The PNG's you speak of are much more like PSD's (PhotoShop files) than
something like Gif or Jpg.  There's a lot of Fireworks-specific information
in them.  So think of the PNG as a working file, not a final export file.

To point you in the right direction: open up the Fireworks HELP and type in:



Export



HTH,

Chris.
