If you want to built a website i recomend Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 [Image: dreamweaver.gif]
>Dreamweaver lets you create sites and applications the way you want to

mwe99, what do you want to just buy programmes? Surey you only buy programmes when you need them and not when your "in a buying mood"?

I wouldn't buy DreamWeaver if you want to get better at website designing, it just halts your learning process and you become too reliant on web-building programs...

RE: Recommended Programs by uberdosis on 05-22-2005 at 09:50 PM

Sif buy software.

Reply to the post avove: Agreed, try using this

Right, use Eclipse as base IDe for any language and attach plugins to it to extend capabilities. For example, for HTML/CSS/PHP you may use PHP Eclipse Plugin and not waste a buck in the buggy dreamweaver.

Photoshop CS2 is also a good choice. (Y)

* Or, the free text editor that came with your non-Microsoft OS.

MS Notepad is shit... try Notepad ++ (has nothing to do with ms and is open source)

I know, I use Notepad2, free and open-source as well (based on SciTE). I used Notepad as the example because I wanted to mention something that needed no preparation/downloading. I also wanted to list the text editor that comes with Mandriva, but I can't remember tha name

RE: Recommended Programs by Stigmata on 05-23-2005 at 08:58 AM

Half-life 2(comes with counter strike source)

it is a good time waster.. and you can spend hours playing it online

You can programs 100 times better then that for free.

Notepad wasn't made to make websites.. It's to "Note things down"
That's why it's called Notepad

I use Notepad2. It has notepad in the name, but Notepad2 isn't just for "taking notes"
