graphic programs

Roy · Apr 18, 2004

ok, what does everyone use for an graphic program, i know
like dreamweaver has fireworks, but what do the frontpage
developers use, thx

chris leeds · Apr 18, 2004

if you think you're going to be a full-time hard-core web developer sometime
in the future get Photoshop and learn it. if not, I've had very good luck
with photoImpact by www.ulead.com it's a very capable graphics program.
although the position I find myself in now makes me wish I hadn't spent all
the time I did on it and would have just learned Photoshop up front.
believe it or not I think learning photoImpact makes it harder to learn
Photoshop. You'll get used to objects and selections and find yourself
longing for their simplicity when you're looking at a 40 layer stack in
Photoshop. plus photoimpact is just more "windowsy" and less "mac-ish"
</IMHO>

You can use whatever graphic application your feel comfortable working with that can save images in
JPG or GIF format will work just fine.

fireworks....photoshop - whatever you want. Fireworks is a standalone
application.
I (still) use Image Composer (came with Frontpage 98).

Most graphics programs will do fine for web use. I still use Image Composer
for most everything I start, then slice and dice or optimize with PSP. It's
also possible to put video on the web without a camcorder-so it's not the
tool but what you can do with it that counts.

Personally I like PhotoImpact from Ulead..while Photoshop is arguably the
best out there..it also carries a big price tag..and for many people it is
overkill.

Thank you.

You really should check it out. It does darned near
everything Photoshop does. It will not do CMYK output but for web work
that's not an issue. And considering PS sells for about $600 and PSE sells
for about $60, it becomes a no-brainer.

I know you do, that's why I stuck it in there.
One of these days I'll dl the trial ver. and check it out.

I've purposely not loaded photoimpact on my new machine to force myself to
get familiar with Photoshop. there's no question that PI is easier!

I also like Corel but it's almost as hard to learn as Photoshop. Fireworks
wasn't easy either. I stick with Photoshop unless I need to do something
quick.

Ifranview's batch process is MUCH easier to use than Photoshop's.

created it in Publisher. But I could!!)

I think you have to be an MVP for five consecutive years before you get

I'm on VDSL. Last month my isp sent me a letter telling me I've been such a
good user of electrons that they were lowering my monthly fee by 5 bucks AND
upping my speed to 1meg both directions (instead of 750k). Seriously...I
almost had a stroke!

My mom is on dialup...it's like watching grass grow.

JoAnn Paules - MVP Microsoft Publisher

I'm an old fart - but, blessed with still having the folks around.

I toldja the story of ma's experience with the Illegal Function screen!

Anyway, Elements 2.0 is cool...a mini photoshop for web stuff...nice. Except
i can't find Slice anywhere yet.

Thanks!
