Making A Nice Website

[boyfarrell]

Hello all.

I'm going to be putting text and pictures together for my website over the next few weeks. Does anybody know where I can go to getting help on making a really simple and slick looking design?

For example I like the look of this site Mike Matas but might be a bit complicated to start of with! I also like apple.com with the tabs at the top.

Are there open sources website design tools?

Daniel.

The only sites that I've made from scratch and liked I made with HTML/CSS and emacs.

I have recently grown to appreciate moveabletype. I don't really blog, but I like having a main page where I can announce new additions as I add them and then have individual project pages on the sidebar.

Of course having said this I've not rebuilt my site since my Linux server died.
