      Agenda:

      We sometimes see Fireworks as the red-headed stepchild of the Creative Suite. But for an increasing number of projects involving on-screen graphics and even high-resolution print work, Fireworks can do some pretty amazing things.

      Some of our group members use Fireworks for EVERYTHING. We'll find out why!

      You'll definitely want the 10.0.3 updater!

      • Fireworks CS4 10.0.3 updater - 5/06/09 - This update to Adobe® Fireworks® CS4 software greatly improves stability for users running Fireworks CS4 on both Mac OS and Windows. A number of issues have been addressed in this release, including bugs that caused text to shift. Several bugs that occurred when copying and pasting text from Microsoft Office (2007/2008) applications have also been fixed. Full Release Notes are available.

      • I always seem to find that websites/apps are lacking in two things. 1) Interaction Design and 2) Good writting. These things often fall on a designers shoulders, especially in small offices. While I can easily say that good web writting is best when it is very lean, interaction design is undefined, and gets ignored, causing more iterations.

        I would love to see Fireworks demos on rapid prototyping! Check out these links on prototyping.
