Design webpage in Photoshop?

[smuamer]

Try the Fireworks CS3.
I mostly use this one when creating web pages.Photoshop is great but it is for everything, photos, designs..etc... so it takes time to find some tools and options.

Fireworks is all about creating web pages.
All its content is focused for creating web layouts, so it comes easier, its very compatible with Dreamweaver and Flash.

Designload is nice...

But a selfmade Zaynian webpage is much more exciting...(-;

You can slice up whatever in Photoshop, yes - but it's easier to create the divs and have the images as a background image (If you know basic HTML?). But yes, creating a live website using slices is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it.

the problem you can have working with Imageready is with the code it generates.
This code workes on many browsers, but it's pretty exotic...

that's why you can use a tool (free at lynda.com) to clean up this code.
The upside of cleaning this code is that it get's compatible with dreamweaver.
This means that you can open the html in DW and than alter things.

Hope you are something this this advice;

My advice would be to learn how to use html and css, and code it from hand after you get the psd. You just use css to position the sliced images, and html to layout, and you come out with much cleaner code.

For laying it out, take a screen capture of your web browser window, then take that image into PS, cut out the goop (the page that you copied), then lock up the guides for placement and simply begin putting together a page from that. This works well with tables and CSS by putting the content in cells (provided you set borders and cellspacing on the table to 0).
