Custom Nav bars in Adobe Fireworks

oregoncountry · 07-25-2009, 10:13 AM

I wanted to share something with anyone who wants a "customized" Navigation bar. I just couldn't be satisfied with using someone elses creation and although it took me forever to find the right tutorial and get mine up and running, it was worth it

Here is the link I found and I hope it helps out here. Lots of people have helped me along the way, denise

Oh, almost forgot that this tutorial is from a couple versions earlier but I found only one thing that wasn't the same as in the new version. I can help if anyone wants to ask me. I learned the hard way but I learned

I found by going step by step works. I am notorious for skipping around but I was amazed at the easy "fix" if I would have read each word

denise in Sams Valley OR
PS Site is close to being open and I am anxious to list it in my signature and get some critiques

Nah, Im not really afraid

I can only benefit from critique from those who've gone before me

I generally first create each graphic state and export them as slices. Then I insert the nav graphics into Dreamweaver using the swap graphic feature.
