    Rogie, I think it’s not a far step to say that you’re becoming the Andrew Kramer of Fireworks. Keep ‘em coming!

    Very cool. Shame, though, you can’t autopreview the tweening.

    Interesting technique, thanks for posting! What about a tutorial on blending modes now? :)

    Yo yo yo!

    Love these little peeks into your workflow, homie. Can’t wait til we get it hammered out!

    Yeah bro, it’s slow moving, but we’ll get there!

    Testing, testing!

    Awesome, as ever very interesting. I love it when you keep mistakes in their as well, allows us to learn from things that you didn’t do quite right.

    I look foreword to the next one!

    Photoshop.

  11. Rogie said 1108 days ago

    Photoshop was made for adjusting photos Josh, not creating web graphics.

    Rogie, you actually do not have to go through the step to convert these to symbols.

    In the paths palette, in the 2nd row under Alter Paths, is blend path. Does not require the symbol conversion.

  13. Rogie said 1105 days ago

    Diane, great tip and thanks for sharing. I hadn’t used blend paths very much and that is certainly a great application for it.

  14. Diane said 1105 days ago

    Rogie, definitely check it out, you can also blend a circle to square like you tried in the video.

    This is great,

    I really have to re-learn fireworks lol. I used to be pretty good with it and then got into Photoshop more…

    Illustrator is still grey to me. :D
