Dreamweaver 8- Is there a prettier way to do photo albums? How about blogs?

Look into RapidWeaver - sounds perfect for you.

Hi,

Thanks for the suggestion, but I'm already using Dreamweaver, and don't really have use for another web design program.

Thanks though!

Well, yeah you kind of do if you want some quick and dirty way of doing things. The thing is DW isn't supposed to be a canned-type of web design application. It'd be best to know your way around some code if you want to do the things that we see from Rapid Weaver & iWeb.

You can google for photo album code and insert that into DW and adjust accordingly. I know I've done that.

As said above, Dreameaver is a tool best used to code things. If you want a well integrated, easy to implement photo album & blog, then you would be better off investigating RapidWeaver, which is light years ahead of iWeb in terms of expandibility and creating accessible websites. Or possibly look at using Wordpress as a CMS (content management system) as that offers bloging and themes out of the box (so to speak) and provides good galleries among other things through plug-ins.

I'm not saying forget about Dreamweaver, just consider using these things as well. Works very well for me
