Hey guys,

I have used a few of them, but I wanted to get opinions...

How do you design your product webpages (software, tools, resources?)?

    Hi Guy
    Me personally, I use dreamweaver, photoshop with a few plugins, along with imageready of course.
    The latest craze seems to be artisteer, kind f pricey but I think its great for the newbie. The other is Xsite pro, I had version one and it was difficult to use, version 2 seems better.
    Using any type of system like those 2, you will inevitably have a site that looks like a template.

    I recently did some work for a client that needed graphics to use in GIMP and Komposer or is it Kompozer? GIMP for graphics Photoshop friendly, and Kompos(z)er for html, also free.
    One I have heard of recently is NVU, based on Netscape composer, also html and free. I have to download it this week for another client project.

      I agree with BrainDance,

    I started with dream weaver but have moved on to Microsoft Expressions. For the most part its user friendly and you can find it on eBay for under 100 bucks.

      You can also find Microsoft Expression Web 2 at Amazon . com for under $100.00. It is what FrontPage was upgraded to only it will do a whole lot more than FP did.

    ff plugins: firebug, FirePHP, WebDeveloper

    Platform: Joomla - for CMS, Dreamweaver for editing and control for static sites, sometimes use it to modify CMS templates or create my own.

    Images: Adobe CS4 Suite. Favorites - Fireworks, Photoshop and Flash

    Quick Generator: Artisteer - it's good for getting out a quick template that I can easily modify using the other tools listed above. Although I'm getting pretty good at making better custom themes than Artisteer can generate. It is good for creating a Joomla based CMS Site with a Wordpress powered blog because the themes match up perfectly.
