The last time I checked Fireworks produced unbeatable filesizes and
quality for gifs, Ignite beat PS save for web defaults for filesize with
the same compression (because you can remove the text metadata).

I reckon that experts in any of them would be hard pressed to find a
difference. I'm not expert with PS, so maybe there's a tweak I was
missing... (or maybe later iterations are better - i'm still on PS5.5!)
I think the secret is not to accept the shortcuts, suggested or default
settings.
