what web authoring tools do you use
 
I write my html by hand
so I just use editpad and photoshop for graphics

I am very curious as to what the rest of ya use

HC-Majick 2004-10-27 11:31 AM

i use dreamweaver for the majority of the coding on my websites, and do the final tweaking in notepad.
all my graphics work is done using photoshop.

lordaron 2004-10-27 11:40 AM

photoshop for graphics, dreamweaver mx for coding, wouldnt use anything else!:)

Alphawolf 2004-10-27 11:40 AM

Dreamweaver MX 2004
FireWorks MX 2004
Easy Thumbnails
http://www.tigercolor.com/
TopStylePro

These Folks have some excellent materials on making quality sites (good coding) while using practical CSS.

Cleo 2004-10-27 11:48 AM

Adobe GoLive for most everything involving doing page layout work.

ImageReady for doing web graphics and image processing.

BBEdit for doing more complex code and text processing stuff.

iWatermark for batch watermarking of pics.

ABetterFinderRename for doing batch renaming of files.

Lemmy 2004-10-27 12:10 PM

Dreamweaver & Photoshop.

MrMaryLou 2004-10-27 12:38 PM

Namo and text pad for me :)

MadMax 2004-10-27 12:43 PM

Dreamweaver for html and PSP 9.0 for graphics, always been a winning combo for me.

cockNballs 2004-10-27 12:48 PM

"Dreamweaver for html and PSP 9.0 for graphics"


Me too

except I haven't bought PSP 9 yet so I'm using 8

Useless 2004-10-27 01:13 PM

Adobe for graphics
Arles for thumbing and opitmization
ThumbsPlus for quick clean thumb tables
CuteHTML for editing
ReName for, well, renaming things.

I often sketch out my gallery layouts ahead of time. For this I use lined paper and a good #2 pencil. :D

T Pat 2004-10-27 01:24 PM

Cute HTML
Banner Maker Pro
Super JPG

Ramster 2004-10-27 01:38 PM

I do my html by hand too. Cut & paste from other pages at times.

PhotoShop or PaintShop for what little graphics I do.

Arles occassionally for thumbs. Jpeg Optimizer for image compression.

Sean416 2004-10-27 01:42 PM

I've been using PS to do my thumbs, but I think im going to follow in the foot steps of some of the other proggies posted in this thread. With photo shop I have to make a new action every time I want to resize the pics, so I usually just end up resizing all my thumbs to the same size. It would be nice if there was an easier way to switch it up..

swedguy 2004-10-27 01:54 PM

I use Homesite, but I do all HTML by hand. I like the tabs and preview in Homesite.
For thumbs and pic compression I use Thumbnailer by Smaller Animals.

Make your droplets in ImageReady and then you can just double click the droplet and change things.

CelticTiger 2004-10-27 03:42 PM

Dreamweaver, Photoshop and Fireworks. I like notepad for really clean pages.

Jim 2004-10-27 04:05 PM

Acehtml is what I have been using for about 5 years now. I just could never get the hang of any wysiwyg editors.

docholly 2004-10-27 05:09 PM

I mostly use Tart and then i use notepad to tweak.

then i send it back to tart to fix after i screw up her tables.

Hi Tommy,

Dreamweaver MX and Editpad for hmtl works

Opti 2004-10-27 06:32 PM

Usually make the layout in PS.. cut it up in Imageready... edit the html and setup basic table layouts in dreamweaver... then finish it in textpad.

Smaller Animals thumbnailer is my favourite handy utility

Trev 2004-10-27 06:48 PM

dreamweaverMX mostly now.... moving over from notepad. I spend a lot of time in the code view.
PS7 for graphics and editing/resizing pics
Thumbsplus for quick thumbs
renameit for renaming

enoj 2004-10-27 07:16 PM

Editplus for HTML and basic PHP scripts.

NuSphere PhpED for PHP projects.

FileZilla for all my FTP needs, and of course photoshop for image manipulation.

f69j69b 2004-10-27 07:26 PM

front page and psp 8

Kezza 2004-10-27 07:36 PM

Dreamweaver
Paintshop Pro
Smaller Animals
Markers Brain

They make a good team for me :D

Linkster 2004-10-27 08:49 PM

Notepad for html - although I have Namo and webcanvas
Xara, PS for graphics - but usually just pay somebody
Express Thumbnail for doing large batches of image pages and thumbs
Batch Thumbs for smaller jobs (but not thumbnailing-it sucks) like renaming
Xat Image and JPG optimizers

Looking at a small script now that can generate 30,000 pages a minute based on google searches - just kidding :)

|shake| Good one Linkster I said "Fuck" so loud halfway though that sentence that the dog woke up barking and the little lady came running from downstairs to see if everything was ok |jester|

GeorgeTH 2004-10-28 12:36 AM

uh-oh - at first I thought I had to be embarrassed for my old-fashioned tools, but then I found more notepad/editpad than I'd ever expected (in 2004) - here's my list:

HotDog Pro 3 (from 1996 or so) - text based with colored tags = the only real difference to notepad - LOL!
It's a bit like the great freeware editor Arachnophilia.

PaintShop Pro 7 for most graphics
Paintshop Pro 5 for screen captures and hand-made thumbs (5 is slimmer and 7 adds a little feathering along edges)
ThumbsPlus 4 for image sorting, thumbnail tables, and batch renaming
Some VB scripts to get tables from ThumbsPlus adjusted to my liking and inserted into templates

I have Macromedia MX on my disc, but never found the time to give it a good try...

murray 2004-10-28 02:36 AM

Notepade/Homesite for html
UltraEdit for coding
Photoshop CS/Image Ready
Thumbsplus

Fonz 2004-10-28 03:31 AM

Homesite 5.0 for HTML and PHP
Photoshop for graphs and thumbs
Super Jpeg for resizing my big images
Topstyle Lite for css

all of that runs on a commodore 64 updated with a "Final Cartridge 6" :D

Mishi 2004-10-28 05:00 AM

UltraEdit for HTML and PHP
ThumbsPlus for quickie thumbs
PhotoShop for graphics
Arles sometimes, but probably not as much as I should
venturi for all other grunt work ;)

GunnCat 2004-10-28 01:32 PM

I use Dreamweaver, and EditPlus for code, photoshop for graphics and SuperJPG for thumbs and image resizing.

Wow Fonz you use SuperJPG. Don't know anyone else that does. What an excellent program. I love the batch feature for thumbs and renaming my files. Did you hear they closed down?

Tommy 2004-10-28 02:53 PM

I use superjpeg for batch compressing and resizing and making thumbs
they closed down :-( .. wow

cockNballs 2004-10-28 03:02 PM

"Paintshop Pro 5 for screen captures and hand-made thumbs"

I still use PSP 5 as well for somethings too

I'm not too familiar with droplets, but I'm gonna have to look into that.

Yah bro kind of sucks. Of course the software hasn't changed in 5 years anyways |jester|

Nige 2004-10-29 11:48 AM

UltraEdit, I've been using it since around 1997.
