This is my first time creating a webpage from scratch. And unfortunately, my computer doesn't have dreamweaver or publisher, and I'm too cheap to buy them. So I tried Nvu, a free website creator. I found it to be very difficult to get the formatting the way I wanted it. It was tough to get text to look nice wrapping around pictures. I also had trouble setting up the publishing to an ftp. So after about an hour of frustration and disgust, I remember my wife had won some kind of software at the eTech Ohio Conference. So I asked her where it was, and it ended up being another web creator, one called WebBlender 2. So I gave it a shot. I was very happy with the program. It was extremely easy to use. You could insert text boxes anywhere and pictures where ever you like. It was also very easy to add new pages, and create internal and external links. It was also very easy to publish my webpage to my ftp. I would recommend it, if dreamweaver and frontpage are unavailable.
Here is the programs website:

Nice looking site! You've got some good supporting links that I'll be sharing with people, thanks. You selected some good info to share with people that they should find useful. I recently discovered Cute PDf myself and I love it because I can now do on my PC what I've always been able to do on my Mac!
