    One reason I always liked Fireworks over Photoshop is the sprite technology that made images with multiple pieces of information much smaller in size than Photoshop. The reason is that, at least in earlier versions of Photoshop, any time you wanted to add a small element, it still added a full layer.

    I do not know if Adobe brought any of this technology into the latest and greatest version of Photoshop or not after they aquired Macromedia.

    Fireworks also always did a better job at compressing images for the web.

    All that being said, for high-end, detailed graphics work, Photoshop still rules as the industry standard,

    Have you used GIMP at all?
