Photoshop or Fireworks for Webdesign?

We would like to redesign our website and I was wondering if you would recommend Photoshop or Fireworks for it? What are the advatages of each product against the other one? What if price is an issue?

This isn't really an either or.
If you want to save money of software then Dreamweaver/Fireworks is the way to go, if you have a larger budget then get the 'Web Design Premium' package, it will take care of all your needs.

Photoshop or Fireworks for Web Logos?

Hi,
I just recently designed a logo for my friend Don Demaise's website: http://www.landcreationsnj.com
I used Fireworks for the logo. Would Photoshop be a better choice for web logos?
Bob

Heh heh heh, if you told Don that a re-designed logo would help drive more people to his site, I can see how this thread could help that along...
I agree with Mylenium on this - use what you're comfortable with. I use Photoshop for such things myself.
First impression, constructive criticism: The bevel lighting on the edges of the "stones" in the logo seems to make them look slightly asymmetrical. I'm not a big fan of the words reading in two different directions, either.

What should i use fireworks for?

Ok, so im thinking of upgrading my current Adobe package with
CS2 to the new CS3 and i was looking at the Webdesign premuim. And
it comes with Fireworks. I do a lot of webdesign and I was
wondering what exactly would i use fireworks for?
What does it do better than using plain ol' Photoshop for
making templates and stuff? ect...
Thanks

Clandestinex337,
There is signficant difference between the Fireworks 8 and
Photoshop in terms of application feature and functionality.
Fireworks 8 is specifically designed for
web graphic
and
web photos
while Photoshop is specifically designed for high-end
professional print and if you will also for professional
photographers to edit high quality photo images.
Additionally, like others have said about Fireworks have
built-in vector-based and bitmapped-based, while Photoshop is
mainly bitmapped-based application. That is a major difference
between Fireworks and Photoshop in that respect.
If you understand, have some hands-on experience with
Fireworks and/or Photoshop, you will know the difference and
undeerstand the main or primary purpose of those two applications
-- whichever that fits right into your needs, your requirement and
things like that.
If you aim for webdesign projects and if you work a lot of
image files aiming for web graphic and web photos, then Fireworks
is for you.
I don't know if you have Fireworks or Photoshop installed on
your machine. If you do not have those two, perhaps that you might
want to test-drive those two for 30 days and let the experience and
hands-on tell the story and it speaks for itself.

Placing images created in Photoshop of Fireworks removes their transparency - how to resolve?

I am designing a logo in Illustrator and have been using Photoshop and Fireworks to edit some photographs which form part of the logo. These photographs are basically of musical instruments and two lions and I've used the rubber tool in Photoshop/Fireworks to cut out the shape of the instrument/lion and leave a transparent background. I've then done a colour fill on the photograph so that it is a single solid colour shape. I save this file, either as a PSD or PNG, and then place it in Illustrator using File > Place.
However, when I cut and paste the logo from Illustrator into InDesign any images that I've been working on in Photoshop / Fireworks have suddenly lost the transparent background they had and instead are displayed as the single solid colour shape but surrounded by whitespace.
How do I resolve this? Should I be saving it a particular way in Illustrator in order to make all whitespace in the Illustration transparent? Or is File > Place the wrong way to import graphic elements?
Also, is there a way to colour fill the imported images? At present I have to jump back out to Photoshop to change the colour and then AI picks up on the save and updates the graphic - it would be nice if I could do that all within Illustrator.
Appreciate the advice. Thank you.

Sorry, completely new to Illustrator.
Let's start from the beginning...the background (page) of Illustrator is white. I can't seem to get it to be transparent so I'm assuming that white is the default and you should just know that it's transparent?
Anyway, I created a logo against this white backdrop. I then wanted some solid colour graphic elements (musical instruments and a coupe of lions) as part of the logo so I opened up some photographs I had of musical instruments in Photoshop, used the eraser tool to remove all but the instrument then did a colour fill on the remaining image so that I had a single colour fill instrument shape. I saved as .PSD.
In Illustrator I did a File > Place to insert the above graphics into my Illustrator logo design.
1) Is it possible to do this colour fill in Illustrator because at the moment any time I want to change the colour of the instrument of lion graphics I'm having to go into Photoshop, change the colour there, save, and then wait for Illustrator to update.
2) Rather than my "dumb" (how rude!) copy and paste procedure what is the best way to get the completed logo into InDesign? File > Place and select the Illustrator file?
Thank you Mylenium.

Flash, Dreamweaver, or Fireworks for web gallery

I'm wanting to make a nice web gallery. I do not want to use
the "create web gallery" feature found in Photoshop or Fireworks
because I want to be able to customize my design more than what's
offered in those templates.
I'm at a loss as to what Fireworks is really used for in the
first place, but from digging around online it seems like maybe
it'd be helpful for making a web gallery (or maybe just the initial
stage of figuring out the design?)
What is the best software for creating a custom gallery? I'm
assuming Flash, but then I thought maybe I could pull it off with
Dreamweaver?
I like how the images zoom in and fade out in these
templates:
http://www.entheosweb.com/photoshop_templates/flash_photo_gallery.asp
These all had to be made with Flash right? I don't want to
pay for a template - again because I want to have custom design of
my own. But I haven't a clue how to do this all, so I'm also
wondering what I need to study up in? Flash alone? ActionScript
3.0?
Thanks for any tips to lead me in the right direction.

Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Acrobat, Word, Firefox, and Safari Quit

I upgraded to SL from Leopard and the install was fine. All my hardware was and is fine.
However, now when I try to save, export, import, save for web, browse for a file and sometimes in the middle of working in Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Acrobat, Word, and Powerpoint each one will quit unexpectedly. Even Firefox, and Safari have quit while surfing.
The report has a variation on:

Photoshop vs Fireworks

My boss thinks Fireworks is better than Photoshop for web development. When saving images in photoshop it seems as if the image sizes are bigger? Is this true?

Photoshop does OK for the Web, but its strength is for print. If ALL that you do is for Web use, then Fireworks will probably be the choice. PS can do it, as of 5.5, but that is not its true strength.
Though I have both programs, my long standing familiarity with PS usually dictates that I use it, until the client wants the "ultimate" Web image, and then FW comes out.
Good luck,
Hunt

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for two years. I got a new printer and installed it although I did not remove my old printer from my computer. I used this program and my new printer for quite a few months, but today I deleted my old printer

I have been using Adobe Photoshop Elements 11 for along time now. When I first used the program I had a different printer than I have now. Although I changed printers I never removed the software from my old one. Now this was never a problem until today. When I choose a printer I still had option to use the old one but always chose my new HP Envy 5530 and Adobe never had a problem printing from that new printer. However today I decided to remove my old printer from my computer and now my Adobe cannot find my new printer. How can I make it find the HP printer?

Photoshop CC 2014 for Mac Error With Display Driver

I keep receiving this error and then Photoshop crashes. Has anyone encountered this issue and if so how did you resolve it? I am using a Targus docking station and I had to download this driver: Driver Name: Video, Audio, and Ethernet Software for Mac OS X Yosemite 10.10, Mavericks 10.9, Mountain Lion 10.8/10.7 (R2.3) – January 2015
As long as this driver is installed on my mac pro, Photoshop continues to crash. If I uninstall the driver, Photoshop works fine.
Error Message:
Photoshop CC 2014 for Mac has encountered a problem with the display driver, and has temporarity disablesd enhancements which use the graphics hardware. Check the manufacturer’s website for the latest software. Graphics hardware enhancements can be enabled in the performance panel of preferences.

You need to update your video driver from the website of the manufacturer of your video card. You cannot rely on Windows Update or Microsoft, which typically have outdated drivers.

Photoshop 13.1 for Creative Cloud Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7

So, Lion won't let me deactivate, so I can't use the updates that I just bought with signing up for the Cloud, so I tried installing on my Mountain Lion Macbook and this is what I get...
Photoshop 13.1 for Creative Cloud
Installation failed. Error Code: U44M1P7
Please Help, somebody!
Spent about an hour with Adobe Tech support just trying to figure out why I couldn't deactivate my product, only to find I had to close the chat room and the advice still didn't work.
Very frustrated, here! I have no updates on either computer, now!

Hi Jules,
Sorry to hear about your difficulties.
My recommendation would be
- Uninstall PS via Mac HD > Applications > Utilities > Adobe Installers (Mac OS X)
- Create a new user with Admin rights, log out of your current account and into the newly created one
10.7 http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4600
10.8 http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11468
- Reinstall Photoshop CS6 via Adobe Application Manager
- Try to update to 13.1 using Help > Updates in Photoshop CS6

Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste

Running:
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC
Windows 8.1 Pro, R2 64 bit, AMD FX3 8350 with 16GB RAM. 75% of RAM free
Photoshop CC 2014 for PC will not copy or paste.
When I create a line of text and want to copy and paste the text in the same document, the copy and paste functions are not working. The commands on the Edit menu are grayed out. CTL+C and CTL+X and CTL+V do not work.
I have the correct layer selected.
There is nothing else selected, just the text.
Copy and paste fail on new documents, existing documents, documents with backgrounds, documents without backgrounds.
I deleted all my Photoshop settings in Roaming>Adobe>Photoshop CC 2014
I uninstalled Photoshop without saving preferences, removed all files and folders and then reinstalled.
Photoshop will still not copy and paste.

I honestly don't know what may be wrong on your system to cause what you're seeing, but I can confirm that on my fully updated Windows 8.1 Pro x64 system equipped with ATI 7850 I can do cut/copy/pastes as you would like to do, so it's not a basic incompatibility.
Are you selecting the characters by dragging the mouse across them, then copying?
When pasting, have you set an insertion point first?

Loading .gif animations into Photoshop Elements 8 for Mac

For years I used Photoshop Elements 2 for Windows to make .gif animations with great success.
Then I switched to a Mac and bought Elements 8 for Mac. Now, I am finding out that I can not load any
of the animations I made using Elements 2 into 8. (And yet I can load animations I made using 8 into 2.)
In fact, I can not load any .gif animations into 8, other than if I make one and save it
as .psd. 8 allows me to make them, but not load them as .gifs.
My question: Is there an easy way to load .gif animations into PS Elements 8 so a
person can work on the individual frames? Am I going to have to convert any .gif animation I
want to import into 8 first into .psd? All I seem to get when I try to load a .gif is the message
"This is an animated gif. You can only view one frame." I have searched manuals and the
Net looking for a specific method of using PSE8 to load gif animations intact (not just one frame).
Is it possible? Thanks. (I also have noticed that Elements 8 will not allow me to change the frame
speed -- it is unchangeable at .2)

Dear Ms. Brundage -
I followed the directions detailed in your blog entitled "Moving a Catalog from Windows to Mac" as well as your description of the process on page 58 of your book "Photoshop Elements 9 - the missing manual."
I installed PE9 for Windows and converted my catalog. I then backed up that catalog to an external hard drive. I then connected the hard drive to my MAC on which I also installed Photoshop Elements 9 for MAC. I opened the Organizer and tried to restore that converted catalog. However, for each file in the converted catalog, a dialog box opened that said "Could not restore file: /Volumes/Name of External Hard Drive/Filename.JPG."
I then made a second backup of the converted catalog using Photoshop Elements 9 for Windows and then tried to restore that catalog again on the MAC using Photoshop Elements 9 for MAC, again to no avail.
Do you have any idea what the problem may be?
Thanks again.

I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Element

I have Photoshop Elements 12 for both PC and Mac (I use both). I have a new camera, Nikon D810. I downloaded the latest version of Camera Raw, 8.8. My D810 is listed as a supported camera model. However, when I try to open a raw photo in Photoshop Elements, I keep getting the message "Could not complete your request because the file appears to be from a camera model which is not supported by the installed version of Camera Raw. I have tried reinstalling Camera Raw many times, and have tried to open many different raw files in Elements, and still get the same error message. Please help.

How did you try to install ACR 8.8. The only way I know of that works with Elements is to use the Updates Choice on the Help menu.
There are two charts supplied by Adobe that explain your RAW dilemma. This one tells you what your camera needs: http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/camera-raw-plug-supported-cameras.html This one tells you what version of software you need: http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/camera-raw-compatible-applications.html
In your case, the Nikon D810 needs Adobe Camera Raw (ACR) 8.6 or Lightroom 5.6. (Congratulations on buying a new camera!)
To get to that level with Photoshop Elements, you will need to replace your Photoshop Elements 12 with version 13. Adobe caps ACR updates on version 12 at 8.5.
The most convenient way to get around it without spending any money is to use the FREE from Adobe DNG Converter. Download and install it from here for FREE: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/thankyou.jsp?ftpID=5855&fileID=5890 Once it is installed you can convert your D810 raw files to an Adobe RAW version with the .DNG file extension that most, if not all, versions of the various Adobe software programs can use. That includes old versions of Photoshop, Elements and Lightroom. DNG converter can be used as the tool to move your files from your memory card to your computer, is efficient, will convert in batches and is completely lossless. There is no risk of any image quality degradation or RAW functionality.
