We’d like to know what design tools you use on a regular basis. Please let us know which tools you use and how you use them. We’d also like to hear more about workflows between designers and developers. Do you mockup you content in Photoshop, vectorize in Illustrator, and then import to Flash? Do you do everything in Freehand and then hand off to a developer using Flash, Flex or an opensource dev tool? Please offer your feedback on your designer workflow.

We are in the process of updating the installer for the Flash Remoting components, as documented in the “Flash 8 emerging issues” technote so it installs the files in the correct (Flash 8) folders. We are expecting to release the updated installer within the next two weeks. If you need to use Remoting now, you can read Peter Elst’s post which describes how to manually install the Remoting components.
