OT: Web design software

[Thomas McGrath III]

Jim,

You might think about Contribute ($99) from macromedia. It works well 
with it's big brother Dreamweaver.
THe thing about contribute is that if "you already have a web page" you 
just browse to it in contribute and create a connection and then hit 
EDIT. There are templates galore and you change and highlight some text 
hit the "Link as" then "Files from my computer" (browse to the upload) 
and then when done editing (WYSIWYG) you just hit Publish. DONE

Contribute can handle a lot of things in an easier way.

It is meant for Web developers to give editable access to non web-savy 
types but maintain styles and code etc.
It also has "pay Pal" support which I have not yet played with.

I use Dreamweaver a lot but now I am starting to use Contribute about 
75% of the time for simple to hard changes.

If you are on .mac you can even get a discount ($79 I think) and get a 
bunch of extra templates for free.
