Comments on Adobe Fireworks

“some great image editing features” Pam Atkins, 2009
“it communicates very well with flash and it’s easy to work with” Paulo Gingao, 2009
“i enjoy the ‘batch editing’ trick: you can lighten and optimise a folder full of images. Expensive, unless you have statewide educational licensing deal.” Michael Chalk, 2009
