Playing with Fire: Tapping the Power of Macromedia Fireworks 4 (For Dummies)

Fireworks 4 is positioned as a professional vector and bitmap editing tool that lets users produce graphical Web pages, modify all types of graphics, slice images, build HTML tables, produce interactive JavaScript-based rollovers and much more. It is sold separately and as part of a bundle with Dreamweaver 4. Although Adobe PhotoShop has in the past been a primary tool for Web graphics, more and more Web designers are using Fireworks. The increase of Web sites ensures increased use of Fireworks in the future, particularly as the Web becomes more visual and effects-driven. Featuring illustrated step-by-step tutorials and a question-and-answer format, this full-colour guide shows Web artists how to unlock the potential of the latest Fireworks release, version 4. The book also includes a CD-ROM offering sample art, Macromedia trial software and more.
