Okay, this is kinda a newbieish question, but I was wondering what I should use for making a web site. I have used Dreamweaver and Frontpage before, but I'm nowhere near much of an expert. I just mostly want something so I can make a decent site with. Also... if anybody has advice for compressing pictures and stuff so it loads quicker I would be apriciative of that.

Dreamweaver is a good one to learn with, especially if you don't want to learn too much html code. I also use CoffeeCup, it's a neat little package. Of course you can always use Notepad.
For more info on learning about html, check out:

There are some great tutorials on there. As for image editing - if you are going to use Dreamweaver, I would suggest Fireworks - the two integrate beautifully. Photoshop is also an amazing graphics editor.
I don't generally have problems with image loading, sorry I couldn't help you out there.

lol Notepad hahahahahaahha
unless u REALLY know ur HTML down pat, i wouldn't try it......
hell, I couldn't even do a site with Notepad......
I mean, I could do most of it in Notepad, but I'd have to edit it in Frontpage or something eventually.....
my personal favorite is Frontpage 2000.....haven't had a chance to get 2002 yet, but I LOOOOVVVVEEE Frontpage, it rocks!!!
Ive made 3 sites with it, and I consider them decent.......lol

Seriously, I know just about what every line of html does and I could more than likely get a page up with notepad. But there are just to many lines to memorize all I mean think about it... tables, cells, rows, columns, and then the always hated filters. I am a whiz with html but notepad isnt the way to go. I use Stones WebWriter. Its free and works just as good as Coffeecup. Also it comes with a tutorial and a tooltip option in case you are new at html. Download it here
One tip though, when installing it when it asks for a key press cancel. The key is only if you plan to use it for commercial use and not private.

I always use notepad, if you know html, this IS the way to go. Editors always put useless code in pages.
For rollovers, imagemaps and slices in general i use Photoshop/Imageready, and cut/paste it into the page.
