Benefits of Photoshop?

September 2, 2003 by Jared Cobb

I use Fireworks MX exclusively.  Does anyone really know of any significant benefits of PS over FW?  You can use any PS plugin in FW.  FW integrates with DW.  I haven't been able to do anything in PS that I can't also do in FW.  And since I purchased Studio MX, it seems to me that PS would just be a waste of money.  Comments?

The benefits? Everything!

I used then all. I know them. Photoshop is THE KING! Fireworks is the WEAKEST attempt to do such a job, and is from Macromedia! It's a waste of money and effort...

BUT, people that learned FW correctly, and know how to integrate it with DW, hey, if it does the job, then it's 5 stars! Periode.

But Photoshop, although it doesnt "integrate" like FW, eheheheh, it's so powerful and unique, that, no way I could ever list all the good things about it here! Check the site, get a demo, copy, whatever, see for yourself the power of PHOTOSHOP!

P.S.: Did I say Photoshop? Well, PS comes with ImageReady, that is a photoshop-web-orientated brother... and in the last years, that's what I've been using. Its raw digital power in one's hands (sight)... Oooooh yes!
