Maybe you could give some examples of those tools? I'm not asking to be snarky - I'm genuinely curious.

- paulmckeever 14y agoThere are quite a few new services emerging that are making designers less dependent on drawing tools: * Gridset (http://gridsetapp.com http://gridsetapp.com) -- for working out your grid and bringing it into a prototype * Typecast (http://beta.typecastapp.com http://beta.typecastapp.com) -- design with web fonts * Easel (http://easel.io http://easel.io) -- a browser-based alternative to Fireworks * CSS Piffle (http://csspiffle.com http://csspiffle.com) -- haven't actually used this yet but looks similar to Easel from the outside * Adobe Muse (http://www.adobe.com/products/muse.html http://www.adobe.com/products/muse.html) -- not well received but maybe an indication of Adobe's future direction [disclaimer: I'm part of the Typecast team]. Photoshop and Fireworks are great and I don't see many designers abandoning desktop software entirely. But I think there are plenty of tools that can help you get into the browser more quickly.
