    Is making your own web site easy?

    Is it really tough to learn html code? I know a few people who know nothing about computers, but have made their own web pages.

    How hard is it? I never bothered to learn code or scripting before, but it's something I am becoming more interested in.

      Well, one that I can post any games I create on, and be able to give my opinions on games I like... basically things like that. Not exactly a fan site or anything, just rpg's I like in general.

          Learning HTML isn't very hard. And there's lots of resources for learning it. There's also a lot of ways to build sites without knowing a single bit of html. Programs you can buy like FrontPage or PageMaker and many web hosts have have a drag and drop site builder.

            But aren't these sites limited in customization? I don't necessarily want to take the easiest route.. I actually want to learn this stuff so I know what the hell people are talking about. If I were to do it, I would want full control.

              Okay then you definitely want to go with learning HTML. Because yeah, just like RPG Maker, the easier it is the less freedom you have. Plus most of the drag and drop solutions will let you access the HTML code so once you learn it you can use the builder to get the groundwork done and then dig into the code for the more intricate stuff.

                    I can't stand WYSIWYG editors. I usually write all my stuff in a text editor, but I recently came across http://www.panic.com/coda/ which is just beautiful. There's also some great firefox extensions out there such as Firebug that let you do all sorts of helpful stuff.

                      It sounds like you'd probably be better served to just make a blog and find somewhere to host your game files.

                      But that's just my subjective opinion.

                        Screw HTML or WYSIWYG editors. Use a content management system like Drupal.

                            I second Vanilla's idea.


                            And if you want to start doing it yourself, I also like Notepad++ for syntax highlighting.
