Adobe Fireworks - easiest vector / photo editor crossover app there ever was.

  It's a real shame its raster functionality wasn't integrated into Illustrator. Adobe really butchered the whole Macromedia portfolio, didn't they? (For those unfamiliar, Illustrator is a pure vector graphics editor; once you rasterize its shapes, they become uneditable fixed bitmaps. Fireworks was a vector graphics editor that rendered at a constant DPI, so it basically let you edit raster bitmaps like they were vectors. It was invaluable for pixel-perfect graphic design. Nothing since lets you do that, though with high-DPI screens and resolution-independent UIs being the norm these days, this functionality is less relevant than it used to be.)

  Did not expect to see FW mentioned here. Absolutely loved it. Just barely stopped using my CS6 copy. Still haven't found anything as intuitive.

  Gah. Fireworks and Dreamweaver were my "web designer" jumpstart. Ps and Ai had nothing on Fireworks

  At my last job m our designer was a Fireworks holdout. It was very pleasant. As someone who has to implement UIs, I greatly preferred it to Figma, though with today's flat boring designs there's a lot less slicing.
