Digital Web: Photoshop vs Fireworks
Nathan Smith gets input from several buddies of mine, including Anton Peck, Jared Christensen, Patrick Haney, and Jenna Marino, on their preference for either Fireworks or Photoshop. The comments are definitely an interesting read, so I encourage you to check it out. I think it’s important to keep some perspective, though: the only people who really care whether you use Fireworks or Photoshop are other designers. Clients couldn’t care less. Debating the pros and cons can be fun for us design nerds, but ultimately it doesn’t really matter what you use — keep that in mind.

Why we don’t skip Photoshop
Yesterday, our friends at 37signals started an interesting discussion on their blog with a post entitled Why we skip Photoshop. But the post actually has very little to do with the actual tool (Adobe Photoshop), and is really more related to workflow.
37signals doesn’t do a visual composite phase in the process of developing their products. Instead, they jump directly from rough sketches (on paper or in their heads) to development using HTML and CSS. At Blue Flavor, we go from rough sketches to creating high fidelity visual comps that look as close to the finished product as possible before diving into HTML and CSS.
So who’s right? The answer is simple: we both are.

Switching art students from Mac OS X to GNU/Linux
What a grave disservice to the students. These are art students, not computer science students, and they’re in school to get training they can use in the real world, not to learn about the joys of open source. I respect Ubuntu and GIMP, but this is clearl
