  • New to web design- which program?

    Posted by Paul Strilka on January 12, 2009 at 3:29 pm

    I would like to start building websites for some of my clients.
    I tooled around in iweb a bit. It would do the job, but I may want more options.
    How difficult is Dreamweaver?
    Also I am a bit confused- Is a Dreamweaver a full complete web design program? or do I need Fireworks?
    What exactly is Fireworks?

    Dreamweaver is a tool to manage and design web pages. Fireworks is a tool to create and work with the images you use in those pages (pictures, backgrounds, etc). Fireworks is like a Photoshop specialized for web design.

    The best tool depends on your background knowledge. If you are already familiar with Photoshop you can start there.
