Macromedia Dreamweaver 4 is a great program for designing my websites. You can see that my website (in sig) is designed in Dreamweaver 4 and its easy to use. I also use Paint Shop Pro and Adobe Photoshop for the graphics.

i like the horse
bvut even with cable the page takes ages to load, try a site that has midi files on for web pages, you should find mustang sally in no time, one thats got no lyrics in etc.. so loads fast. and if you want the music playing all the time here a tip i hope helps.. try stick it in a frame that way only the main page is changed to browse the site but the frame with the music in stays still
hope that helps... the ftp is up if you still want dreamweaver and fireworks just login man.. it will be on undisturbed for about 30 hours
both are version 4 (latest ones)

Here comes another site with annoying background music. It's cool the first time you visit a site, but then it just grates on my nerves when a wepage embeds a midi. Especially if it's a song I recognize, because then I start hearing the REAL song in my head and since it doesn't compare to the real thing I eventually just leave the page.

A good example I guess would be h*tp://www.samsloan.com webpage. Interesting fellow, but that **** music!

Thank GOD for Proxomitron's SOUND SILENCER option.

If you're going to embed a midi in your wepage PLEASE put a "Stop" button to go with it.
