Because some people, like me, enjoy programming at a more basic level.
I use Ultraedit because I use Ultraedit for everything, which happens to include a ton of binary programming, and it has one of the best hex-editors out there.
I'm pretty handy when it comes to C, C++, Python, and Javascript. They're all well known and very useful.
However nothing has been as satisfying to me as manually dumping bits into the memory of a PDP 8. I don't even like using punch cards, it's all levers for this guy.

Yes you can use notepad but then you have to save it and then you have to open up a visual aid (ie or firefox) to view it. Waste of time IMO and with most html editors they give you a source, source/visual or visual editor. Anyways, most web host providers give you a free site builder with the cpanel account. It is very simple and easy to use.
The way I see it is I'm going to spend 90% of the time using the source editor in something like Dreamweaver. Now I don't know about you, but a button to load up the html in a browser isn't worth $400 to me. Not to mention the time it takes to double click on a file is less than negligible to even worry about wasting.

Notepad++ has a button to load it in Firefox/IE. :D

Re: How did you make your website?
I tried taking Nate's advise on my website.
I origonally bought my URL through godaddy and my hosting through 1and1 however I am extremely computer code illiterate and there was this pointing issue. I had to make my url point to my host so that the web page would come up when you tried to look at it online. If you can't tell I just couldn't figure it out at all.
So I bought my url with 1and1 and used their templates to make my website. I like template programs. I know it's not the most pro website out there but I think I did pretty good with it, and it was easy to use that was the key.
With what ever you choose to do good luck!
Re: How did you make your website?
I'm still working on my site. I decided to use a buy it now button. I might get rid of it...not really sure yet. I am very easy to get a hold of. Just check my contact page.
I used Dreamweaver Fireworks and Flash 8.
I have a bunch of babies I will be posting there,09 spiders and a 09 clutch of 7 albinos some normals.
I know nothing of HTML, CSS or any of that other compu-geek stuff.
I did it all myself...and it shows. LOL

starquakes.net Photoshop and notepad. S'all I used. :2cent:
But, I'm lazy and haven't bothered to work on it more than the front page. :giggle:
Re: How did you make your website?
I personally use dreamweaver to build websites. Although I do it professionally.. sooooooo might not be up your alley?
It's a pretty easy program to figure out on your own, if you know HTML & other coding for web language. It just makes it alot quicker & easier than coding by hand (which I have to do at work...)
Photoshop (or other image editor) is pretty important for logo/layout/etc. Gimp is free, offers alot that Photoshop does.. but does not offer it as cleanly, or in depth.
One example of a site I built via photoshop & dreamweaver: www.flashforwardphotography.com
