Im not saying I dont like fireworks. But PhotoShop is better in every way, there is nothing I do in photoshop that can be done easier in fireworks.
Plus web coders want a psd, not a png.

I can use a .png...
Anyway, PS is much better as he said. Fireworks isn't bad but it's worse than Photoshop.

Do a lot of vector work in Photoshop do you?
You've not used fireworks much, or you'd know that comparing the two is useless; they are completely different animals. It is specifically designed for the site design process, where as photoshop is a broad range graphics tool.

Different software for different applications, Fireworks looks to be very effective for web designing. Good article, yet very biased

I hate Fireworks. It's just not good enough for me. It's unlogical, and feels incomplete. Dreamweaver on the other hand is my all-time favorite webcode editor!

In my webmastering class at school, we use Fireworks. At first, I hated everything about it. Going through the interface, to me it felt cheap and incomplete. I was way to attached to the Photoshop interface. However I did find it much easier to use the Pen tool in Fireworks. I understand the benefits of using Fireworks to make vector stuff, but I don't work with vector at all. Also, I hate the brushes that come with Fireworks. They just aren't very flexible. And finally, when I try to apply styles to layers, I can't really figure out how to get the effect I want, however I can picture exactly how to do it in Photoshop, and that is extremely frustrating for me.

You can save your fireworks files as .psd's -

How can you compare fireworks and dreamweaver....they aren't even the same type of program.
