Dreamweaver is,\u00a0as far as I know,\u00a0 the industry standard web design package. It&#8217;s got all the bells, whistles and knobs to everything the most dedicated web\/phone app designer could possibly need. It is vastly more than what I need, however I&#8217;m on a project to learn and skill myself for the future.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I had the Adobe CS2 package this was after working my way up &#8220;Pagemaker&#8221; running on Windows 2.0, if I remember right,\u00a0around 20 years\u00a0ago.\u00a0 Having missed out on the upgrade to CS3 I made the decision to shell out the \u00a32k ish to get upgrade to the Master CollectionCS4. Exceedingly expensive for some one just starting out but I use InDesign, Photoshop, Premier, Illustrator, After Effects on a commercial basis and Flash on a thirty day trial that had just run out.\u00a0 The Adobe Master Collection CS4 comes with the upgrade to all the software I use and all the Web publishing software, DreamWeaver included.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why I think I need it &#8211;<\/strong>Quite simply I don&#8217;t\u00a0 need it.\u00a0Not for now anyway, I&#8217;m sure I could achieve what I need for iDoStuff with\u00a0cheaper, easier software.\u00a0 The ulteria motive is to constantly drag myself\u00a0and my skills to a valuable level. I&#8217;ve got another 20 years until retirement\u00a0and the future is on-line.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What I know about how to use it &#8211; <\/strong>Anyone got a postage stamp for me to write this on.
