wysiwyg web site creator

usenet identity

My boy turned 4 yesterday.

He was born with a ton of dificulties. When he was born I resolved to
put up a website with photos as things went along. Both to keep family
in remote parts of the country/world in the loop, and to support other
families with the same kinds of problems.

I did o.k. for the first two years or so. I had done all the html by
hand learning it as I went. I made mistakes (and bad choices in
colors/layouts etc.).

I have decided that it is time to rework and catch up the site. We are
traveling cross country in October for three weeks of intense physical
therapy for him and it would be nice to publish updates and results as
the happen.

It is a big undertaking and I don't have an extraordinary amount of free
time. What I would like to find is a good WYSIWYG page creator, and a
program that helps in creating thumbnails and batch image resizing.

I appreciate all suggestions.

What about creating a blog if you think you won't have much time ?

Totally unfamiliar with the workings of them. (I know, I know, get out
more, but I think what keeps me unfamiliar with them is that I do "get
out" more)

What would the benefit of doing it in blog form be? Keep in mind that
the main purpose of it is to post pictures of the boy. There is very
little writing involved.

1) usual suspects include: amaya, bluefish, quanta, screen, nvu, mozilla
composer.

2) I use 'imagindex' for resizing, thumbnails, making a photo gallery.

I'd have to agree, a blog package seems the way to go Wordpress +
picture plugin (there are several) would probably fit the bill rather
nicely.

Alternately, google's blogger might be workable, though I don't know how
good their image support is.

Hmmm. I'm not sure there's anything that practical available. I would do
image resizing using the gimp and for wysiwyg use Kompozer.

However,
Why not use something like google's webpage creator?


It's fairly straight forward from what I can gather, and free.
