There are many books on the leading Web design tools Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and Flash. Most focus on just one tool, showing a collection of bite-sized, unrelated projects. Web Design Complete Course is unique in that it shows readers how to complete a single, large, real-life project. While completing the sessions in this book, readers will improve their knowledge of how to use each of these tools. But perhaps more importantly, they will learn how to integrate Photoshop, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, and Flash to create a customized, interactive, e-commerce site.
Part I starts with an overview of the Web design process and explains how to plan a new site. Part 2 shares step-by-step techniques for building beautiful graphics with Photoshop and Fireworks. Part 3 covers animation from simple animated GIFs through advanced, interactive Flash movies. In Part 4, readers are shown production techniques for preparing media for the Web and how to begin building their initial Web pages in Dreamweaver. Finally, Part 5 shows how to work with HTML, add CSS, e-commerce capability, and upload the Web site to a hosted service.
