I don't think Fireworks in easier to use than Photoshop. If anything I'd say it was harder!

It depends what you're trying to do. This design was the first and only time I've used Fireworks for anything. Julia uses it all the time though. Download the trial version and see what you think.

This forum's logo was made in Fireworks, just in case you're interested.
