Does anyone know of any good website makers? I'm okay with paying a bit of money, but I don't have a lot. ^^ And I don't really know HTML, either. I wanted a nice website design. Not just black balckgrounds. I mean ones you can design yourself.

You can find a good site builder at SnapFiles. Here, I'll give a direct link to the right area:

http://www.snapfiles.com/freeware/webpublish/fwwysiwyg.html

Pay attention to the stars and green bars. They usually point out great programs. There's also a shareware section. Just click the link near the bottom of that page.

I do suggest learning HTML, though. It's extremely easy. Lissa Explains it All (http://www.lissaexplains.com/) and HTML Goodies (http://www.htmlgoodies.com/) are two of the best places to learn, IMO. It only took me about 6 hours to get the basics down when I learned through LEiA.

Good luck with your site, though, no matter what path you take.

It's easier and better in the long run to just learn HTML. It's simple- just a couple of hours should get you the basics. There are hundreds of HTML editors out there for free. I recommend HTML Kit, which is powerful, easy to use, and expandable (plugins).

But Notepad won't display a lot of stuff right (most PHP documents, i.e. when modding/skinning a forum) and doesn't have prettiful colored tags to keep everything nice and organized and easy to find. XD

If you're not that good with html and want to get a decent layed out site up pretty quickly, I suggest searching through some of those free template sites and editing the template, that's quite easy even for a beginner ^_^.

Nvu is a very good WYSIWYG editor. It's based off Mozilla, and is aimed to become the open-source equivalent to Dreamweaver. While it doesn't yet have the feature set of this expensive program, it's often updated, and the best you'll get for free. Get it at http://www.nvu.com/ [/advertisement mode] Oh, did I mention it's easy to use? XD

"Mathematics, rightly viewed, possesses not only truth, but supreme beauty – a beauty cold and austere, like that of sculpture, without appeal to any part of our weaker nature, without the gorgeous trappings of paintings or music, yet sublimely pure and capable of a stern perfection such as only the greatest art can show."

FrontPage Express really isn't great, unless you just want to whip up a quick page.
