Ok time to get your anoraks on. I'm looking for some recommendations for web design software. I've got my own dot com website that's basically a load of photos of the work I'm doing renovating my house, it's a load of thumbnails with captions and when you click on the thumbnail it opens up a bigger picture all pretty basic stuff. Currently I use Yahoo pagebuilder, as Yahoo hosts the site, but it's all a bit slow uploading the pictures and especially compiling the pages (which seems to fall over regularly) so I'm looking for something that's a but quicker. I use ftp to upload the images so that side of things is probably as good as it's going to get but what I want is some software that allows me to create a page of say 20 thumbnails and then ideally create multiple copies of the page that I can then re-point to the other images and then just ftp the files to the server (hope that makes sense). At the moment I've got about 700 photos I want to upload so I'm looking at a good few pages worth. I know I can use image hosting sites but I really want to host them myself so it's not full of free ad's or other stuff that's not relevant. The current site is at www.oldschoolannexe.com if you want to see the current format and you'll also see I've started to create some archive pages but it was all a bit slow and I started to get bored with doing it. I don't mind buying the software if it's something that will do what I want more easily and I'm not short of bandwidth or disc space on the host server. Anyone got any suggestions - all ideas welcome. Thanks Richard.

Maybe he'll just do the decent thing and torch it to put it out if it's misery.
