The Photoshop slice tool is at least useful to generate all the images you'll need. I use it to slice everything, chose the proper formatting in Save For Web, and copy/paste the files to the image directory. I then link them to my actual template with CSS.BruceLeeRoy said:

Psh. Stop being lazy. You're diluting the job market for real designers.
I guess it's great for people who don't want to learn HTML code and don't mind having a horribly coded site.. but.. it really isn't that hard to learn HTML and CSS. If you ever have trouble all you gotta do is go to the w3schools forums, either that or someone could start a HTML GAF thread =P (if there isn't already one)

I would use this like I use dreamweaver, to prototype and build the initial design. Then I would rebuild it with CSS and clean up the code.
You can't expect real sites to use this software, since most use a CMS that breaks the design into components and metadata. Imagine trying to make a site using wordpress with muse, not going to work... At all.

This is fucking stupid, it's aimed at graphic designers? Graphic fucking designers shouldn't be designing websites, period.
Graphic designs know what looks good, are arty and make some wonderful looking stuff. They don't know how the internet and websites works (UI, UX, you know basic shit) and every time I get a design from a 'graphic designer' and not a 'web designer' I crack the fucking shits. Always doing thing that's a impossible on the web, just cos it 'looks good'.
Don't want to learn HTML, CSS or anything like that? Then don't try and fucking make websites.
Don't try and tell graphic designers that, they just think you 'make it HTML and stick up their work. They have no idea how long it takes to carve up a design, put in menus and heaven forbid if they want the page to scroll or the client puts in more content then the design allows.

They should.. or could. But they shouldn't build them.VOOK said:

What's the best wysiwyg editor?
Yeah, that was one of the first things that jumped out at me as well. The interface is pretty good, but the sourcecode it generates is horrid. The pages it generates are at least 4 times slower to load than it's handmade counterpart, on Chrome. I'd hate to think how they perform on crappy browsers like IE.Tieno said:
