Ben Nadel said: "I think we need to come up with a definition for "photo manipulation." I only say that because it seems like photo manipulation is what sets Photoshop apart."

> Ha ha ha, I didn't even know you could use ACDSee to edit images :) I use ACDSee as my primary image viewer, but I think the most I have ever done for editing is rotating the images.

> I might agree with this. Why "might"? > I would also say that it works the other way as well - Not many web developers would use Photoshop for web development.

Sure, basically they're both image editors, but Photoshop is pure image editor per se, while Fireworks is mainly focused on web design. Not many photographers would use Fireworks for image editing... read more »
