Sheri German's recent article, Design your own Custom CMX CSS Course, was very popular here on CMX. And when I did a quick survey of how many Fireworks articles have been written (well over 300) I thought to myself, "self, a custom course article for Fireworks might just be a good idea."

So I spent a few days researching our content and categorizing it into what I felt were pretty logical sections. The results are an all-encompassing piece that links to all the current Fireworks or Fireworks-related articles found on CMX as of January 27, 2007.

If you're looking for introductory or must-know articles, I have a section called The Basics. There's another category linking to all the articles that focus on masking, another on just the vector tools, and another that is all about photo retouching and manipulation.

I've also included a section called Projects, which points to articles that encompass a wide variety of Fireworks techniques. We've got several holiday-related tutorials for Hallowe'en and Christmas, that you will find in this section.

This article will be hitting the  CMX shelf any day now. If you're a Fireworks user - or want to be one, keep an eye out for it, and let me know what you think.
