Brazilian web designer Fabio Sasso provides a tutorial describing how he creates a site in Fireworks. I'm not a Fireworks user, but this blog entry caught my eye because of how instructive and thoroughly illustrated it is. I'm a loyal Photoshop user and don't intend to drop dollars for another graphics program, but the examples here make Fireworks look pretty darned nice.
Fireworks has been an underground hit with interaction designers for a long time, and it's finally come of age with CS3. Now if it's interface and shortcuts were only better integrated with Photoshop. Regardless, I wouldn't use anything else. Using Photoshop for interaction design is like using a sledgehammer on a nail.
