You can easily move up to Fireworks CS4 if you're currently a licensed user of a qualifying Adobe product. Fireworks’ new interface is clean, uncluttered, and for the most part, intuitive. Photoshop CS4 Extended also features 3D support. Two dimensional images can be changed to 3D by giving them x, y and z co-ordinates. Fireworks displays dynamic snapping vertical and horizontal guides that appear as you drag objects on the canvas.
