MajesticTreeFrog 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 Photoshop is an 'all-in-one' solution for graphic design. Not just for the web, but graphic design PERIOD. Full version photoshop can do pre-press stuff that other programs simply can't. It can do color matching, and optimize colors and color channels for newsprint and book printers(things most people NEVER need). It can do special stuff for photography, etc etc. For webdesign, you really have more than you need. But the nice thing about photoshop is that its all the same interface, which, while it could be better, is still pretty good. The program actually meant to be used strictly for webdesign is Adobe Imageready which COMES WITH photoshop. Imageready is the thing to compare more closely to Fireworks. This is also why photoshop is more expensive. buying photoshop is actually buying photoshop+imageready. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-=Wrighty=- 0 Report post Posted December 24, 2004 I love photoshop, it can do basically anything. Signatures, Avatars, Web-Designs. All sorts really. Its a great piece of software, it takes a while to get used too but once you have you can make some amazing pieces.I use photoshop for most of a piece then I use Fireworks and Paint Shop Pro for the rest, they are all good but photoshop can do most things and therefore gets my vote.
