Product Reviewed: Total Training for Dreamweaver 8



Adobe's New Superstar - Dreamweaver 8
Dreamweaver is a dominating presence in the world of HTML editing programs, controlling around 80% of the market share. As a consequence, anyone with serious aspirations toward graphic design will have to learn Dreamweaver – especially now that Adobe has purchased Macromedia, and signaling in various interviews that Dreamweaver and Flash are now all-important to them. There are even preliminary indications that GoLive may be placed on Adobe's backburner.

Time To Learn Dreamweaver
Photoshopsupport.com was built using GoLive, a decision that we made based on our familiarity of using Adobe software. At this stage, however, if we were launching the site today, we would do so using Dreamweaver.

All this to say that for those of you just starting out, Dreamweaver is the way to go, and Total Training has come up with a definitive DVD training series that will take your website from idea to reality in just a few days of tutorials.

Produced in HD, this two-DVD set runs on both Windows and Mac. Layout, development and maintenance of standards-based websites are the main topics covered in over 10 hours of tutorials. As with its Flash DVD series, Total Training offers a highly effective visual approach to learning Dreamweaver – you can quickly and easily gain a working knowledge of the numerous capabilities of this flexible design tool and code editor.

Janine Warner's Captivating Charm
Beyond the obvious tips and tricks, perhaps the most appealing aspect of these tutorials is the method and manner of the instructor herself. Widely recognized as a leading expert on all that Dreamweaver has to offer, Janine Warner's relaxed and familiar approach to imparting her know-how makes even the most inexperienced beginner feel at ease.

Even her voice is calming, making the training experience far more captivating. Those who harbor recollections of hours spent in a dreary lecture hall, straining to pay attention to a tinny-voiced professor, should be pleasantly surprised here! Make sure to read our interview with Janine, where you will get an even greater sense of her personal appeal and down-to-earth ability.

For novice or professional, Total Training For Dreamweaver 8 offers a dynamic and convenient learning experience. Just as with its popular Flash series, you benefit from having the lessons available at your convenience and adjustable to your own pace. Your start-up or mainstay company will profit from the experience of having a seminar in the comfort of your own home or office - without the often prohibitive cost of travel, in terms of both time as well as money.

Summary
This is another outstanding product from Total Training and a great tool for all web developers. Hunker down and learn Dreamweaver 8 in no time with state-of-the-art, high-definition video tutorials, and a host that is not just knowledgable but passionate about her subject. And as I've mentioned before in other reviews of their products, Total Training uses a super user-friendly interface and a smart chapter-based DVD system that makes it easy to locate lessons at a later date. Highly recommended.
