DW and FW

[jerush webforumsuser@macromedia.com]

New to web development and after numerous books on creating websites with Dw and FW or Photoshop. I find that you start making webpages with canned images already sliced and fitted. Nothing I have read talks about creating, editing or sizing your images BEFORE you import them to DW. What is the correct method? Seems to me you need to create, size and splice images first then form a webpage around them. Any advice here

My approach has always been to have the main images on hand (like the
header, body, etc) and some other images lurking. When I have a need for the
other images I will get into FW and size, color, manipulate, etc. I know
some folks like to not optimize the images at first then go back and redo
them but I like to get it done upfront.
