Rockettheme released templates for Wordpress that are free and super fast. Sure there are a lot of templates out there, but these templates in particular have Adobe Fireworks source files ready for you to modify and tweak. Check the Rockettheme’s out:
Novus
Novus is a new FREE WordPress theme released under the GNU/GPL license. Novus features a clean and professional design that is incredibly lightweight and fast loading. Novus is a perfect template for any professional or business based website and includes a multitude of features including a tableless fully CSS layout, 12 widget positions, Adobe Fireworks Source PNG file for making your own graphic modifications, cross browser compatibility, and much more.
Afterburner
Afterburner is the fastest WordPress theme ever and is completely free. The theme balances speed and search engine optimisation with a full feature set. The theme is based on the standard SEO layout used in club templates, and is therefore fully dynamic and collapsible.
John Dunning created a new Auto Shape to help with faking text when creating mockups. Very nice!

I’d encourage you to read this article by David Hogue on Using pages, states and layers. He explains the differences very well and uses visual imagery to eliminate any confusion on what he’s describing.

I’m really enjoying the Android G1 device and with the G1 comes the YouTube app. So I naturally started searching for "Adobe Fireworks" in YouTube and surprised to see so much content for Fireworks that I then narrowed the search down a bit to "Adobe Fireworks CS4". Here are 20 YouTube videos for Adobe Fireworks users that I liked. I’m sure there are more, please share your favorites too! I wish I could play Korn when I’m giving a Adobe Fireworks demo.
