New logo design... Photoshop, Dreamweaver Etc...

[DetailnByDustn]

I recently design a logo (check avatar) with photoshop cs4, amazing product and very easy to use. I was wondering does anyone have experience with dreamweaver for designing their websites or flash animation?

I'm a web designer on the side and use Dreamweaver all the time, but only for it's "intellisense" (aka: auto completion). I stay strictly in Code view. Dreamweaver is not used for Flash animation though. For that, you would need to use Adobe Flash. I personally loathe Flash and stay away from it if at all possible. I also use PS CS4.

That looks really good, Dustin.

Last I knew most people use Adobe Illustrator for actual design work like this though. I have PS CS4 myself and really need to get AI to do what I want.

Yes, AI is much better at things like vector logo design that PS could ever be. That being said, you can still produce some nice work in PS.

How did you learn how to use Dreamweaver?

That looks really good, Dustin.

How did you learn how to use Dreamweaver?

Just taught myself. I do computer programming as my day job (also self-taught) so figuring out HTML didn't take me too long really. Like I said in my first post, the only reason I use DW is for it's autocompletion and ability to easily structure the code. Once you fool around in there enough, you'll be using strictly Code view in no time. :2thumbs:

During the day I work as a web developer,but like using visual basic, or textpad...
