Anybody who has a Web site knows that content alone is not going to make or break it. The site's visual images, the appearance of its navigation buttons, the type effects it employs, the interactivity it offers--all of these things are key to a Web site's effectiveness, and all of them can be manipulated with Macromedia's newly updated Web graphics program, Fireworks MX 2004. To do so effectively and efficiently, you need this easy, task-based guide. In these pages, best-selling author Sandee Cohen takes you through all of the Fireworks essentials: from using the basic drawing, color, and effects tools to creating interactive buttons, and more. Simple step-by-step instructions; loads of visual aids; and a friendly, no-nonsense writing style make it easy for beginners to get up to speed quickly. Plus, a well-indexed reference format and complete coverage of Fireworks' newest features (added drawing tools, more image manipulation options, motion effects, and more) make it a must-read for veteran users as well.

I use Photoshop, but read how great Fireworks was and wanted to try it. I found that it's HELP is terrible, and not very useful to new users. Then I found Sandee Cohen's book, and all is now clear. This is a great book, walking the user systematically through how to use Fireworks, and emphasizing the ease and simplicity of keystroke shortcuts. Very highly... more info
