Working with images in Dreamweaver CS4

Birdland is a famous jazz club in New York City, but it is also a playground and fictitious site for my son Scotty, an amateur ornithologist, and my sister Jillian Kossin of Jillian Photography, a professional photographer who took the bird images used to create the site.

In this tutorial I will show you how to use the Fireworks and Photoshop image editing integration tools in Dreamweaver using the Birdland website as an example. You can download the support files and follow along to create the design for the website.
