Macromedia and Project Cool Launch Web Site Design Contest</p>
<p>New York, N.Y. - December 8, 1997 - Macromedia, Inc. (NASDAQ: MACR), today<br />
announced that Dreamweaver, the first visual Web authoring tool created<br />
for Web development professionals is now shipping for Windows and<br />
Macintosh. With Dreamweaver, Web professionals experience the power and<br />
productivity of a visual tool with the control and flexibility of an HTML<br />
text editor. Dreamweaver is also the first HTML editor with in-depth<br />
support for cross-browser dynamic HTML. Since the Dreamweaver beta was<br />
released in October, over 80,000 downloads have been recorded from the<br />
Dreamweaver Web site, <a href="http://www.dreamweaver.com" title="www.dreamweaver.com">www.dreamweaver.com</a>. To celebrate the shipping of<br />
Dreamweaver, Macromedia and Project Cool have launched the Dreamweaver Web<br />
site design contest.</p>
<p>Top Web design firms such as Digital Planet and Box Top Interactive have<br />
already incorporated Dreamweaver into their day-to-day production schedule<br />
while several sites including HotWired, Merrill Lynch and Discovery Channel<br />
Online started using Dreamweaver to redesign their Web sites, examples of<br />
which are currently available at <a href="http://www.dreamweaver.com" title="www.dreamweaver.com">www.dreamweaver.com</a>.</p>
<p>"Dreamweaver has some of the most powerful features we've seen in a Web<br />
design tool," states Kurt Kochman, vice president of production at Box Top<br />
Interactive, an award winning Web design firm based in Los Angeles. "It<br />
offers significant advantages over working in text editors, while still<br />
giving us complete control over the HTML source code. Designers can now<br />
spend more time being creative and less time thinking about HTML."</p>
<p>Many Internet professionals have rejected the current generation of visual<br />
HTML editors-preferring to stay with text editors-because these tools make<br />
significant changes to imported HTML. The Dreamweaver engineering team<br />
built the product on a foundation that preserves the integrity of original<br />
HTML source. The underlying Roundtrip HTML technology allows developers to<br />
switch back and forth between their current HTML source editor and<br />
Dreamweaver without fear of changes to their original HTML. Macromedia,<br />
Project Cool Launch Dreamweaver Contest To celebrate Dreamweaver's launch,<br />
Macromedia and Project Cool today announced a Web site design contest to<br />
showcase the creative and design capabilities of Web developers using<br />
Dreamweaver. The contest, which starts today at Fall Internet World, is<br />
focused around the themes of El Nio and the Year 2000. Awards will be<br />
presented for Best Web Site Design and Best Web Site Makeover using dynamic<br />
HTML.</p>
<p>Entries for the contest will be accepted from December 8, 1997 through<br />
February 28, 1998 at <a href="http://www.projectcool.com/dreamweaver" title="www.projectcool.com/dreamweaver">www.projectcool.com/dreamweaver</a> with winners announced<br />
at Spring Internet World on March 12, 1998. Winners in each category will<br />
receive roundtrip airfare anywhere in the world* in recognition of<br />
Dreamweaver's underlying Roundtrip HTML technology.</p>
<p>The contest will be judged by leaders in the Web community, including:<br />
Roger Black, president of Interactive Bureau; Glenn Davis, co-founder and<br />
CTO of Project Cool, Inc.; Ted Greenwald, editor-in-chief of InterActivity;<br />
Kevin Lynch, vice president of Internet authoring at Macromedia; Brandee<br />
Selck, senior interface designer at LVL Interactive; Dan Shafer,<br />
editor-at-large of CNET's BUILDER.COM site for Web Builders; David Siegel,<br />
author of Creating Killer Web Sites; Jeffrey Veen, interface director at<br />
Wired Digital and author of HotWired Style; and Lynda Weinman, author of<br />
