What type of projects do you work in Fireworks and are there any challenges you faced that Fireworks have helped you?
Fireworks is the tool I used the most I think it's one of the most versatile apps there is out there because you can work with vectors pretty much like Illustrator but also you have some great bitmap editing features and filters. For web design project it's definitely the best tool in my opinion. 

Fireworks excels as a rapid prototyping tool. How does Fireworks helps you in your design workflow?
I always start the projects in Fireworks, I start adding all the elements I will need, like texts, navigation, some images. All inblack and white. After that I start testing different things based on the design brief. 

What is your favorite tool / feature in Fireworks and why?
I love the vector capabilities, and that we can add multiple effects in the same object, like multiple inner shadows, glows, blurs.. etc.

Fireworks work even better with fireworks extensions. What is your favorite extension and how do you use it?
Can you believe that I haven't installed any extensions?

Many people compare Photoshop with Fireworks. What is your viewpoint in this?
I think they are different tool, like Photoshop has much more features and it's specifically for photo treatment and editing. Of course you can create websites, but it's much easier to do that in Fireworks in my opinion. It's much more flexible. 

Do you have a Fireworks tip for the Fireworks community?
My tip is play with the Feather with white shapes over dark backgrounds with Overlay for the blend mode to create nice light
effects.

Are you involved with any communities on the web?
I try to share my work as much as possible, through my blog at abduzeedo.com, and other websites such as flickr, behance, twitter,facebook...... I think it's very important to put your work out there and these sites make our life much easier.
