I was having a bit of a problem getting a viable web page up and running before. Our campus's document sharing system (Xythos) seemed to be working, but the webpages I was making just weren't functioning well. I had been using Microsoft Publisher 2007.
I then tried using Adobe Illustrator, but that ended up not being too easy to use, I could get a layout setup and create slices, but I really have no idea how to work it as html, all I had were images.
Then I found out about KompoZer, which is a 'what you see is what you get (WYSIWYG) editor. I've been able to get a two-page website up and running. It's really uninteresting right now, and exceptionally plain. I suspect that the coding is excessive for such a simple site too. But, now at least I have something I can work with:

Webpages
Trying to create a new webpage for myself. I got the idea because at the Grad Center we're given access to a document 'share' system called Xythos (apparently these are the same people that run the classroom software program "Blackboard"). One of the functions of Xythos is that it can 'share' html documents, in other words we can host our own webpages.
So now I am playing around with MS 2007 Publisher. I suspect that it's not the 'goto' program of a lot of people, but it's what I have access to through Kingsborough. We also have access to the Adobe Suite, but apparently that doesn't include Dreamweaver, which is an ambitiously named website-maker.
