obviously never used fireworks have you?! It's brilliant for mockups and simple web changes. Are you the kind of person who'll only use photoshop 'because everyone does'?

Ive always used fireworks, I managed to convince designers @ my old workplace to switch, with much complaining along the way.
now changed jobs and its back to pshop! argh so much slower I can work so much faster in fireworks
having said that Pshop does seem to produce more of a polished look, don't know how it just does, for example curved boxes in fireworks tends to look too blurry not as sharp

Fireworks has MASSIVE FLAWS with its subpixels, it uses them but you have absolutely no control over them.
You know in flash you can end up with lines sat at say 10.3,35.2 pixels but you can correct it and get a sharp line back. You can't correct it in Fireworks so if you just want thin but not 100% sharp pixel lines then you will get annoying little inconsistencies.
Has a lot of advantages but misses the mark with the basics (see also the laggy paint engine with its rubbish brush palette and also the lossy and destructive transform tool) so I end up using them both.
