I agree that CSS Sculptor has it’s flaws, but overall I think it’s an excellent product. I used it to learn CSS and still use it to create my basic layouts from Photoshop designs. I think that’s where IRS most useful, because if you rely strictly on their preset layouts and designs, you’ll end up with a pretty bland site. But it’s very useful in creating the div structure of the page and while patty at times, still faster than using Dreamweaver or hand coding.

I have been using CSS Sculpter since version 2, and have upgraded to version 3. On windows XP with 4 GB RAM and CS4, it is SLOW and does crash from time to time, but not often. But, it does work for the most part and found it to be quiet useful.

On windows 7 with 16 GB RAM and CS5 it zips along fine, hasn’t crashed yet and is a pleasure to use.

Overall, I have to say the product has saved me a lot of time and enabled me to make some pretty nice web sites.

All the best.

No, I haven’t, but to be fair I haven’t been looking either. I have CS5 and Dreamweaver has made improvements in it’s CSS generation, Especially with their HTML5 plug in.

As far as WebAssist goes, I file them in the Junk mail. I am truly surprised Eric Myers would lend his name to them.

I have to agree with your comments on CSS Sculptor, especially the attitude that WebAssist seems to have (ie. forget about any actual support or customer relations).

I’d be interested in knowing if you ever found an alternative app for it?
