Scenario:

We need to submit designs for a local elementary school's letterhead and business cards. The necessary information is below, and I STRONGLY suggest looking at some letterhead design from online design sites for examples and ideas.

The Web package from Adobe includes another imaging program besides Photoshop that has it's beginning as a web imaging tool. It's a much simpler program, but has some GREAT tools that make it a little bit better than photoshop in some cases when you need to just generate quick web images. You should be familiar with this tool's advantages so that you can take advantage of this tool's strengths.

Project Objectives:

Create 3 images using Fireworks for the web.
