Fireworks, on the other hand, had the best compression engine in the game, even Photoshop dulled the colors on every “compress for web” job i threw at it.
I started as a flash developer, don’t miss it since jQuery and the Green Sock Animation Platform does everything flash could do, but better.
Funny story: around the mid-2000s, my boss at the time moved me off of web development because his teenage son was really good at Dreamweaver. I was in my 20s, losing my “Webmaster” job to a young whipper snapper.
It was my first wakeup call that young people can always replace you.
Btw - Not shitting on the kid either. He was pretty smart and honestly, I was a really crappy web developer in that era.
I miss Fireworks. I have an old computer that still runs it and it’s still my favorite program to quickly throw something together in. I hate that they killed it and wish there was something like it still today. I haven’t found anything I like as much for that.
I always hated Dreamweaver, so no big loss.

Yeah, probably the weakest link on the Wayne’s World soundtrack tbh…
