Photoshop. Fireworks. If you’re a serious web designer (and not using the GIMP) you’re going to be using one or the other. But which is best?
As an argument for Photoshop, I would say that it is the graphics software that has always catered to the pixel. All of our displays (currently) are pixel-based, and I feel very comfortable working with pixels.
I recently had the opportunity to talk to eight talented web designers about the applications that are crucial to their work. Half use Photoshop, while the other four prefer Fireworks. In the past, such questioning might have been akin to debating PC vs Mac but, since the Adobe acquisition of Macromedia, it is now less about brand loyalty and more about efficiency. www.digital-web.com/articles/photoshop_versus_fireworks/
