Are you tired of using Adobe Photoshop, Dreamweaver, or
Flash? The new Microsoft Expression aims to rival these established names in the web design industry. This tool has been available for preview, but its complete version is expected to be launched formally this year.
Microsoft Expression offers the graphics and design usage that other tools have, as well as new features. These include the Sparkle, which enables the creation of 3D graphics and animation, and Acrylic Graphic, which allows illustration and painting. The
Quartz Web service in this suite, meanwhile, provides the design and layout function for websites.
