As is easily noticed, my website sucks. Enough people keep ragging on me about it, that maybe I'll up and do something about it. However, I currently have FrontPage 2000 and I hate it. Ideally, I would like an open source website + html design tool implemented in Python, so that possibly someday I can fix whatever's broken about it. That said, I would like a tool that actually saves me work as a web designer. I don't feel that FrontPage 2000 does this. I'm saying there's a certain level of maturity that has to exist in the app, it can't be some "alpha quality" thing. If you know of such a beast in Python, please let me know.
Here are some examples of reasonable website designs for my purposes as a game developer or consultant: http://www.igda.org/seattle/ http://www.cyphondesign.com/ http://www.alphageeksinc.com/ http://www.gamasutra.com The first 3 sites "breathe well," they aren't cluttered. Gamasutra is a little cluttered, but has good aesthetics. Also when I write articles for other people's consumption, this is the standard I'd measure them by. I'm not sure if I want a blogging capability, or something more like Gamasutra. That's a quality vs. quantity issue. I don't know if I want a web forum. I generally don't like web forums and I've tended to let Yahoo! Groups do the mailing list job. I believe my webhost can take either Unix or Windows stuff. My local machine where I do all development is Windows. I'd be interested to know about Linux solutions too though. -- Cheers, www.indiegamedesign.com Brandon Van Every Seattle, WA "The pioneer is the one with the arrows in his back." - anonymous entrepreneur -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
