 Useful if working with Version CS3 December 1, 2008
A useful book for anyone looking to design their own web site using Adobe flash tools. A beginner can benefit from the information but some experience with Adobe is helpful. I would give the book higher marks except Version CS3 is now the old version and CS4 is the current level of tools which have enough differences from version CS3 to warrant an update of this book.

This book covers Adobe CS3 in Photoshop, Dreamweaver, Fireworks, Flash..etc. Before I selected this book, I ever went to B&N and Borders so many times but just can't find ANY book with Firework CS3 (They may have Firework 8 from Macromedia). Anyway, the contents are well organized and printing quality is super. I have read more than 50% and followed the instructions step by step. Readers can download examples from their website.

This book was great. Awesome review huh? Just kidding? I ahve watched quite a few tutorials, and read a great many books on how to design websites. None of them ever did more than barely touch on how to do it using Photoshop other than take a image, add words, make them links, now make rollover links, "wow doesn't that drop-shadow look great". Whatever they were all crap.
This book on the other hand takes you through several real-world applications, although they are ficticious sites. Anyway, the techniques you will be shown, and the subsequent workflow, along with the fact that the author explains to you why you are doing something before you think it necessary amke this book very easy to follow.
What I mean by this is you are laying out in photoshop, and all the while he is explaining how this will relate to dreamweaver later. It's not a book written with the premise of do as I say or you will be sorry later. It is written under the premise of make things easier on your self cause we are going to need this for when we use css to bring it into dreamweaver. The stage has already been set, and your mind is already working on the eventual task.
GREAT BOOK!!!!

Wow. I just finished chapter 2 and am completely impressed with this book. Rarely do I care enough to write a review. Actually, this is my first review ever, for a book. I knew nothing about Photoshop, except for the common train of thought that Photoshop is an industry standard, is powerful, and is not "easy" to use.
This book is a big step-by-step tutorial on how to create a web-page mock-up (something that should be done before creating the actual web page). Mock-ups are analogous to designing a computer program before implementation begins.
For under $30, it's cheaper than taking a class and is a breeze to follow through.
Great book! July 29, 2008

So far I have read through the first two chapters with no knowledge of AS 3.0 or OOP (Object Oriented Programming), and this book has helped tremendously. Still working my through it but everything is pretty clear and to the point. Definitely suggest this to anyone with some previous AS2 knowledge trying to get updated to AS3 and OOP.
