Lol
I liked the bit about the “flickering moire seizure.”

(+131) When I input a pixel location on a movieclip in flash, DO IT. Don’t add random decimal points for no reason.

Thanks for writing about that site, Scott. Out of curiosity, I checked the Fireworks gripe list; it has a few good points too, but most of the complaints come simply from ignorance.
