Dreamweaver can be a nightmare

Its been a long time since ive had design ideas i my head but couldnt translate them into the computer. Its a frustrating feeling but fortunately, a familiar one. I remember battling the pen tool in illustrator, and again in photoshop. I remember not knowing why the line would curve the opposite direction i wanted it to but what i remember most is when the concept finally clicked and it became second nature. This feeling has returned. Having never used Dreamweaver, i find myself with ideas too complex for my skill level. I look at the blank artboard(?) wondering where to start. Wondering how to execute these ideas. You would think Adobe would lay out the interface similar to the way they did photoshop, illustrator, and indesign to make it easier to work across programs. But alas, they didnt and im sure they have their reasons. At least i know this feeling will pass like it has many times before.
