Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I know that my team, Cyber Blue 234, uses Dreamweaver MX. I'm not on the web team, but I spent a good portion of my season in the computer lab working on video for the animation and for PR stuff. Our website is pretty good. Good enough to win the website award at the Phoenix regional. :] Cyber Blue 234's Website

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I absolutely HATE having to FTP transfer files to the server every time I edit. I would die if I couldn't SSH to my server. There's some problem with my LAN that causes severe lag to my server. I'm pretty sure it's a problem with my DSL modem acting as my NATing router, but either way.. it makes connecting via ANYTHING super slow.. and that really kills FTP transfers. I'm so used to editing directly on a server that I'll ask the person for which I'm designing something for a SSH account.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

At work I have the most horrible setup:

I run Windows NT, w/ Exceed. Exceed is a client to log onto and browse a UNIX server. But it's very difficult to transfer files from Exceed to Windows, so I have to do all the editing using the default editor (Text Editor), which is a GUI wrapped around emacs or vi or something like that. For previewing I use IE, which is the Devil incarnate... :P

Fully Adobe workspace.

That means GoLive.
It makes working with css so easy and is a much more artistic system then Dreamweaver I think. You can creat a nice site in a single day with it.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I'm very diverse. I use Flash, Photoshop, Dreamweaver, and sometimes Swift3d for animation. Sometimes I don't use Dreamweaver at all, and just do the entire thing in Flash or Photoshop.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I didn't see this mentioned so I guess it is not very popular. The program that I always use is called AceHTML 5 Freeware. (http://freeware.acehtml.com/) I use it all the time, for anything. It is free, not pirated, and has every feature that I use. Web designers should at least try this program out.

I use a program called EditPad to edit stylesheets while I am working on a large website. I use Internet Explorer 6.0 and Mozilla FireFox 0.8 to preview pages.

The site that I trust the most for downloading software is Nonags (www.nonags.com). I go to the free access part of the site. It has programs for just about everything, web design related or other computer programs. This is where I found AceHTML and Editpad. (not notepad) I just got Linux so I don't have enough experience with each program to say what I use there.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I'm the webmaster of my team, and if I have any say in the matter, all coding is done in Notepad. The computer administrator at our school got us Dreamweaver, but I refuse to use it, because I don't like it. It's cheating. At least in my opinion. =P

Yay Notepad! And I use Photoshop 7.0 or Jasc Paint Shop Pro 7 for all of our image editing stuff. Yup.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

Why is using Dreamweaver cheating? You can code your heart out with it if you want. I like it because if helps with a lot of stuff, and it is the industry standard from what I am told.

Just my opinion

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

How is Dreamweaver cheating? I challenge you to make a better site with Notepad than you can with Dreamweaver in the same amount of time. Better yet, just tell me one thing Notepad can do that Dreamweaver can't (and don't say Word Wrap :p). I heard some of the Website Award sites were made with that program, by the way.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

First of all, Dreamweaver has all the great features, I admit. However, the fun in programming a website is taken out when you use those features, aka cheating. Notepad makes you feel like you are in complete control. Dreamweaver just takes more memory, longer to load, slower processing, etc. If you prefer to use Dreamweaver, go ahead, I am just saying why some people prefer notepad. It is personal preference.

From my experience, "industry standard" means nothing. If you are typing all of the code yourself, it doesn't matter whether you use Dreamweaver or the box where you type your posts here on Chiefdelphi. (assuming that you copy and paste it into notepad to save it) It will be the same exact code and it will work exactly the same. (except for factors such as browser, OS, screen resolution, and other differences) I could be missing something, however.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

If I'm working on a script, or a page on my computer, then I use Notepad. If I'm working on a website that I wanna show the world asap, I use the editor Brinkster has.

So, basically it's 80% of my time Brinkster, 20% of my time Notepad.

Re: What program do you use for webdesign?
 

I use the text part of Dreamweaver, for the coloring of text so I know where I am. Otherwise, notepad is a party. Especially in scripting, having to know if i have an open ' or if I closed it correctly, the red makes it easy to figure out. Images, use photoshop and/or GIMP. That's about it, I think
