Adobe's New Superstar - Dreamweaver 8
Dreamweaver is a dominating presence in the world of HTML editing programs, controlling around 80% of the market share. As a consequence, anyone with serious aspirations toward graphic design will have to learn Dreamweaver especially now that Adobe has purchased Macromedia, and signaling in various interviews that Dreamweaver and Flash are now all-important to them. There are even preliminary indications that GoLive may be placed on Adobe's backburner.
Time To Learn Dreamweaver
Photoshopsupport.com was built using GoLive, a decision that we made based on our familiarity of using Adobe software. At this stage, however, if we were launching the site today, we would do so using Dreamweaver.
All this to say that for those of you just starting out, Dreamweaver is the way to go, and Total Training has come up with a definitive DVD training series that will take your website from idea to reality in just a few days of tutorials.
Produced in HD, this two-DVD set runs on both Windows and Mac. Layout, development and maintenance of standards-based websites are the main topics covered in over 10 hours of tutorials. As with its Flash DVD series, Total Training offers a highly effective visual approach to learning Dreamweaver you can quickly and easily gain a working knowledge of the numerous capabilities of this flexible design tool and code editor.
Janine Warner's Captivating Charm
Beyond the obvious tips and tricks, perhaps the most appealing aspect of these tutorials is the method and manner of the instructor herself. Widely recognized as a leading expert on all that Dreamweaver has to offer, Janine Warner's relaxed and familiar approach to imparting her know-how makes even the most inexperienced beginner feel at ease.
Even her voice is calming, making the training experience far more captivating. Those who harbor recollections of hours spent in a dreary lecture hall, straining to pay attention to a tinny-voiced professor, should be pleasantly surprised here! Make sure to read our interview with Janine, where you will get an even greater sense of her personal appeal and down-to-earth ability.
For novice or professional, Total Training For Dreamweaver 8 offers a dynamic and convenient learning experience. Just as with its popular Flash series, you benefit from having the lessons available at your convenience and adjustable to your own pace. Your start-up or mainstay company will profit from the experience of having a seminar in the comfort of your own home or office - without the often prohibitive cost of travel, in terms of both time as well as money.
Summary
This is another outstanding product from Total Training and a great tool for all web developers. Hunker down and learn Dreamweaver 8 in no time with state-of-the-art, high-definition video tutorials, and a host that is not just knowledgable but passionate about her subject. And as I've mentioned before in other reviews of their products, Total Training uses a super user-friendly interface and a smart chapter-based DVD system that makes it easy to locate lessons at a later date. Highly recommended.

Site Grinder Web Design Tool - Exclusive $100 Off - Photoshop Plugin
Our partners at Media Lab have given us an exclusive offer — you can purchase Site Grinder for $299, saving you $100 off the regular price. Go to the Media Lab site to find out more about Site Grinder and this special offer.
There often seems to be a strict division of labor within the world of web design and development. Creative professionals tend to stick to the Photoshop domain, while those well-versed in scripting are left to the task of implementing their work. Indeed, the two realms are quite different from each other, to which any of us even vaguely familiar with either can easily attest.
Essentially, Photoshop is a no-holds-barred design studio, offering the artist a seemingly endless array of creative options. On the other hand, HTML, CSS, Java and the like follow strict rules of engagement, requiring the developer to take any number of esoteric concerns into consideration in order to ensure that designs are properly displayed on the web.
Turn Photoshop Into A Complete Web Design Tool
SiteGrinder seeks to bridge this gap between design and development. Basically, SiteGrinder turns Photoshop into an easy-to-use and fully functional web design tool. With SiteGrinder, designers will now have the freedom to totally let their creativity loose and then, without skipping a beat, transfer their designs to the web. Bringing esthetic concerns together with more practical considerations, SiteGrinder is an amazingly powerful tool that would make a fantastic addition to any web designer's bag of tricks. Mac OS X and Windows versions of the SiteGrinder unlockable demo are available now via download.
