I have used Yahoo SiteBuilder and WPM, but when I upload them to Geocities, the images don't appear. With SiteBuilder, they appear on my computer but nobody elses because it loads them off my harddrive!
Anyhoo, can someone recommend an easy to use web site designer? I have tried Macromedia Studio MX and FrontPage, SWiSH 2 and the two mentioned above.

I might try to search for SWiSH sites templates, and try with it again.

I did, but I want to try making a Flash website, but I can't find anything suitable which is easy to use, for noobs really. Since I'm no pro at making websites!

Yahoo geocities is only good for a very small family site. Unless you pay for premium space. With only a few pictures and links, all your bandwidth could be used up by only a few visitors. And their page builder has major bugs.

YEP BUT

Free accounts are limited in the type of files we allow on our system. ZIP files, MP3 files, RAR files, SIT files,and other file types used primary for storage are not allow for free sites. If your site is found to have these files they will simply be removed. If we find excessive amounts of these files in your directory you site will be removed without notice. We are not a storage facilty for people to store files on. Free sites space must be used for a website, and not to serve file downloads.

Free accounts are limited in what they can be used for. We do not allow free sites to be used for storage of files for any use. This includes but is not limited to image galleriers (Photos of celebrities, digital camera images, model sites, anime sites, etc). If your free site is found to be a site used primarily to store images or other file types it will be removed without notice.

That Yahoo&#33; SiteBuilder is good, but to upload it you have to have a Yahoo&#33; Webhosting account. It doesn&#39;t seem to allow GeoCities. :(.

Dreamweaver is very easy to use&#33; my dad hu is useless with comps even managed to understand it&#33; Get MX as well as it has far more features than the older ones.

I have made a class website with SiteBuilder, it&#39;s just that for it to work correctly, you have to use the in-built Publisher and have a Yahoo WebHosting Account, which isn&#39;t free. And I can&#39;t upload the files manually, or edit the site with another editor, because nothing will appear right.
