Best
Art & Design Products of the Year
Best Web Graphics Editor
Our next winner was a product new to me this year. I had never touched the thing
before February, and now I couldn't imagine putting up a Web site without it.
The program is Fireworks from Macromedia. Why do I like it? Well, for one thing,
it has absolutely the  best
JPEG compressor in the business. For another, it's a really nice program to work
in. For example, it can use Photoshop filters, but the filter effects remain editable,
so you can change or remove them whenever you'd like. (This differs from "History"
in other programs by the fact that the effects remain editable even after leaving
the program and coming back later.) It's capabilities are much stronger than any
other Web graphics editor, and its ease of use is outstanding. This is another
program none of us here at Digital Media Net could do without.
