Reader Reviews
This review is from: How To Use Macromedia Dreamweaver MX and Fireworks MX (How to Use) (Paperback) I really like this book a lot. I have other books on Dreamweaver and Flash but this is my favorite for both. First it selects the essential tasks you have to do. For a small book it's incredible how often the procedure you need is right there. Second, it picks a smart easy way to do each of the things. Other books have examples that are overly complex for no good reason. Third, each procedure is profusely illustrated so it's hard to miss the point. One screen shot for every step. It even has circles around the button on the screen shots and a picture of a mouse with the word "click". In the middle of the night you really appreciate this kind of idiot-proof design format. Finally, it's a really pretty book. After a wading through books with 1,000 pages of text, something this colorful is easy on the eyes.
