Inside Qualifications
My Qualifications
Program Proficiency
Platform
My operating system of choice is Windows (currently Vista x64), but I have worked extensively on most versions of Windows and as well as OS9 and OSX. I feel comfortable and proficient using both the PC and Macintosh platforms.
Software
Although I use many programs to perform my duties, Fireworks has evolved into my tool of choice for creating Web layouts, as I find its combination vector / raster engine the most intuitive and efficient, and its custom anti-aliasing options for typography indispensable. I use Photoshop for more advanced image work, and Illustrator for vector elements such as logos. I prefer to hand-code my XHTML and CSS using Dreamweaver, although I have also used Visual Studio when required.
I have working knowledge with the following pieces of software, and would rate my knowledge with each as follows:
- Fireworks
- Dreamweaver
- Photoshop
- Illustrator
- Flash
- Office Suite
- Acrobat
- InDesign
- Premier
- Cinema 4D
- Visual Studio
