POLL: Best software for BASIC, but professional-looking website development...

C

candletrader

Firstly, a BIG thank you to Brother Aphexcoil for all his advice to date... he is our resident Tech Maestro, of that I am sure!

I wish to start a simple website where I can put all my photo albums online (photos from my international travels and my saxophone appearances in different continents)... I also want to put on other stuff, such as my views on various global issues.... additionally, I would like to create a basic section on my trading...

I do NOT wish to learn HTML and things like Java... I am looking for a simple drag and drop approach, but something that doesn't look too amateurish...

There are many options out there, such as Frontpage2002, Dreamwaver, HotMetal, GoLive, Coffeecup... to name but a few...

So what do you guys recommend?
 
brother candle.

We should now go on to destroy evil web page software which originally springs from the fanatic Bill Gates.

God bless Linux death to the evil macromedia

Hope this helps

luv,
stu
 
Dreamweaver is about as easy as it gets. I try to stay away from Frontpage unless I need to put a basic form on a webpage. If you're developing in Frontpage, remember also that you'll have to have Frontpage extensions installed on your webserver if you expect all of the functionality to work correctly. Some hosting services won't allow this install on shared servers because they fear that will compromise security for their other shared hosting clients. Also, as you become more accomplished in using Dreamweaver you can add some pretty good plug-ins that are fairly cheap. Just do a little research before purchasing any of these programs and you'll be alright.

Yes, indeed, brother Stu. The families of Gates' victims will no doubt be overjoyed at the prospect of sweet revenge, and death to all the terrorists who oppose such justice.

Our fiery planes will bring bloody havoc to all those in Washington who would bring monopoly to our great and free society.

Let all dictators sleep uneasy knowing that they will soon be awoken by capitalist vengeance from the skies...

Rest easy brethren!!!
 
brother Aphid is a commy programmer infiltrator and dreamweaver the spawn of the devil. Brother bungrider is right. Assasinate them and may bloody bugger havoc fall upon teach your ass webpage design. It destroys democracy and capitalism by stealing the jobs of the few. Nuke the bastid.

Hope this helps

After we march across Washington with our mighty army of capitalist freedom, we shall extend our efforts to the rest of the world, including the evil generals Ellison and Jobs.

They will be the next tyrants to be scratched from a long list of freedom hating monopolists.

May the grapes always have plenty of wrath!!!

God bless the sovereign state of Linux!

When those commie bastards are shot in the street like the running dogs they are, we shall be the victorious keepers of all that is holy and sacred.

May the grapes be stinky with wrath!!

Hallelujah!!!

Open code! Open code!
...we chanted
In the starry night of Redmond
...but nobody listened

Bill did not listen...did not pick up those $1k bills
and despite our crying threats of indifference
to evil dictators with no time to pick up money
we still stole their software

crack the code! hack the code!
into the database our mighty pirates went
and corporate america sneezed and sneered
that one day we had some of their code



***This poem (pronounced poim) is dedicated to the brave fighting brethren who have fought the evil monopolistic dictators gates, ellison, and jobs. One day when they fall, our brave heros shall be remembered in a monument of freedom, casting a light over the free world in which all will bask...
 
brother candletrader and other brothers,

I use Golive first and foremost. I also use Dreamweaver, but less so.

Good luck in your endeavor brother.
