Well, now that I’ve had a day to play around customizing wordpress a little, I’ve been able to get the majority of the design implemented. I would have been done had it not been for my lil dance with the Adobe CS3 package, and my splitting headache trying to understand how such an advanced product fell so short for me in a very simple respect.
Last night and today were also my first opportunities to really play with the new Photoshop CS3, and I came across a terrible omission that has simply got me all sorts of pissed. The fact that ImageReady is no longer in the product could have been okay, especially for the fact that I only ever used IR to divide my PS layouts into nice slices. Something that always made me wonder why it wasn’t build into PS by default. I understand that there are some really good slicing features with Fireworks, but I have rarely to ever used FW in my daily web design over the past years. All I’ve ever worried about was Photoshop, and Imageready using it’s quick slice & dice, and poop it out for the web, so now I’m left with my pants down trying to figure out how to do what was a very SIMPLE process in Photoshop CS2, and is now proving complicated.
Poop on you, Adobe… I’m gonna install CS2 again… just for that ONE DUMB feature…
