For basic HTML coding, Notepad is a good choice. But when it comes to using complex HTML coding ( nested tables, CSS, DHTML etc. ), it's better to use programs like Dreamweaver and Homesite. And Dreamweaver Student Edition is cheaper than standard ones.

A good program to convert bitmaps to JPEG pics is to use ACDSee. Programs like Adobe Photoshop also can, but usually such programs don't show the effects of the conversion right away. With ACDSee, you can preview what will happens if you convert the bitmaps to jpeg and to take appropriate actions such as decreasing compression etc. before starting the conversion process. And they do batch processing too. Neat program!

Hmmm ... I coded my site entirely in Notepad, and that uses DHTML (tho mostly Java, I'm afraid ... still working on that). You do get better results, IF you know HTML well. I tried using a proper editor, and it just annoyed me that I couldn't tweak everything just how I wanted. Now I use it just for the HTML reference  :)
They are good when you're starting out tho.

fireworks is a waste of time, very hard to do anything that takes have the time in something simpler like paint shop pro (and that has batch processing into anyformat)

Actually, I too use notepad for making my web pages. I just use stuff like frontpage to get the tables right. Too much hassle getting the tables right with a text editor

For the best web design tool, I say that it is Dreamweaver 3.0 (I haven't tried 4.0 yet)
The best graphics tool is Paint Shop Pro 5.0 (Haven't tried the latest) as you get to  convert a Pic into many different formats and you even get to dertermine the compression ratio.

This is getting way off-topic. We might actually break the 100 posts for the 2nd time(1st time was the soundfonts one i think). Anyway, I prefer Adobe Photoshop 6.0 to Paint Shop Pro. I'm not saying that dreamweaver is not good. It's just that notepad allows more control over the webpage.

Illustrator only looks and feels like photoshop cause its made by the same company. Photoshop does what its name says and is better at photo editing. Illustrator is better for people starting from scratch. Besides Illustrator format is required for certain 3d programs.

psp7's good, but its the only one i really use. im doing my ubb pics with it. i used net objects to do my site, but i then have to get the html, compress it, edit it and stuff to get it somewhere close to good. notepad's good, but you need html knowledge for it. yeah ficedula, your sites great but the java makes my pc run REALLY slow, but i think u know how crap my pc is anyway.

That's why there's a non-Java index to go to ... maybe I should make the link a bit more obvious.

Photoshop 6.0 isnt much different from 5.5
The interface slightly different though, might need a little getting used to.

Well... I don't know about the off topic thing. Just as long as it's not in the wrong forum.

This topic was meant to ask the age of people. Then it sort of went to where people come from. From there, it sort of became really off-topic to the now new graphics-html topic. Honestly speaking, if this post makes it to 200, we should close it.
